The Fanconi Anemia panel analyzes 26 genes involved in this inherited syndrome of bone marrow failure with progressive pancytopenia, congenital malformations, skin hyperpigmentation, and a predisposition to hematological malignancies. Mutations in genes of the DNA repair system cause cellular hypersensitivity to genomic damage and the accumulation of chromosomal breaks. Using next-generation sequencing (NGS) with detection of SNVs, indels, and CNVs, genes involved in the homologous recombination pathway and genomic maintenance are evaluated, including FANCA, FANCC, FANCG, FANCL, BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2, RAD51, and FANCM. This analysis allows for a comprehensive approach to the molecular causes of chromosomal instability syndromes and differentiates classic Fanconi forms from phenotypically overlapping entities.
