LYSOSOMAL ACID LIPASE DEFICIENCY
... LIPA full gene sequencing is a procedure that reads the instructions (DNA) that make up the LIPA gene. This is a way to identify the presence of altered LIPA genes in a person’s cells, helping a doctor confirm the diagnosis of LAL deficiency. The test can be performed on a sample of blood or prenata ...
