Hereditary Bone Marrow Failure Panel, Sequencing and Deletion/Duplication
Ordering Recommendation
Use to assess for inherited/germline DNA variants associated with bone marrow failure or hereditary predisposition to myeloid neoplasms. The preferred sample type is cultured skin fibroblasts; testing whole blood in affected patients may not definitively determine germline status. Not intended to detect somatic variants; to assess for somatic variants of prognostic and/or therapeutic significance, refer to Myeloid Malignancies Mutation Panel by Next Generation Sequencing (2011117).
New York DOH Approval Status
Specimen Required
Cultured skin fibroblasts (preferred) or
Whole blood: Lavender (EDTA) or yellow (ACD solution A or B). Or
Skin punch biopsy: Thaw media prior to tissue inoculation. Place skin punch biopsy in a sterile, screw-top container filled with tissue culture transport medium (ARUP Supply #32788). Available online through eSupply using ARUP Connect™. If cytogenetics tissue media is not available, collect in plain RPMI, Hanks' solution, sterile saline, or Ringer's solution.
New York State Clients: Lavender (EDTA) or yellow (ACD solution A or B) AND Prevention Genetics Healthcare Provider Statement
Cultured skin fibroblasts: 2 T-25 flasks at 80 percent confluency, Fill flasks with culture media. Backup cultures must be maintained at the client's institution until testing is complete. Skin punch biopsy DO NOT FREEZE. Do not place in formalin. Transport a 4 mm skin biopsy in a sterile, screw-top container filled with tissue transport medium. Whole blood: Transport 3 mL whole blood. (Min: 2 mL)
New York State Clients: Transport 5 mL whole blood (Min: 3 mL)
Cultured skin fibroblasts: Critical room temperature. Must be received within 48 hours of shipment due to lability of cells.
Skin punch biopsy: Room temperature
Whole Blood: Refrigerated
Grossly hemolyzed or frozen specimens; formalin fixed tissue, FFPE
Cultured skin fibroblast backup cultures must be retained at the client's institution until testing is complete. Skin punch biopsies can be cultured at ARUP at an additional charge.
