Informations about the disease

Clinical Comment

Das frühe Merkellzell-Karzinom kann im Rahmen eines Krebsprädispositions-Syndroms auftreten (Mohsin et al, JAMA Dermatol. 2024). Um dies genetisch abzuklären, empfehlen wir eine weiterführende Keimbahndiagnostik der 5 Kandidaten-Gene. Bitte schicken Sie uns (amedes genetics) hierfür den beiliegenden Einsendeschein und die Einwilligung nach dem Gendiagnostikgesetz mit EDTA-Blut und einem Überweisungsschein zu. Bei Fragen melden Sie sich gerne bei unserem GenService unter 0511-301795185 oder schicken eine Mail an: genservice@amedes-group.com.
