Diagnosis
[edit]Autosomal dominant or X-linked familial disorders often prompt prenatal testing for germline mosaicism. This diagnosis may involve minimally invasive procedures, such as blood sampling or amniotic fluid sampling.[1]2,4,5,6,8 Collected samples can be sequenced via common DNA testing methods, such as Sanger Sequencing, MLPA, or Southern Plot analysis, to look for variations on relevant genes connected to the disorder.[2][3]11,12
