What is this code?

LOINC codes identify tests, measurements, observations, survey items, and clinical questions in a standardized way. It is associated with the component MUTYH gene full mutation analysis. It is commonly used with the system or sample type Bld/Tiss.

When is it used?

  • Used in lab systems, EHRs, and clinical data exchange.
  • May identify a test, observation, survey item, or clinical document request rather than a diagnosis.
  • Status: ACTIVE
  • Order vs observation: Both
  • Method: Sequencing

What it does not mean

  • The code identifies the observation or test, not the actual result.

Key facts

MUTYH gene full mutation analysis in Blood or Tissue by Sequencing
MUTYH gene full mutation analysis
Full gene sequence analysis, such as by next-generation sequencing and/or Sanger sequencing, are performed to detect pathogenic variants within the MUTYH gene. This test is useful for identifying familial MUTYH mutations to allow for predictive or diagnostic testing as well as confirming a suspected clinical diagnosis of MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP) in patients with adenomatous polyps or early-onset colorectal cancer.[GHR geneMUTYH]
