Секвенирование генома у пациентов с вероятно наследственными заболеваниями нервной системы

NGS-based technologies play an important role in the diagnosis of diseases of the nervous system. The advantage of their using is the wide coverage of the analyzed genes, which allows to increase the detection of causes in such a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of diseases. The purpose of this work is to determine the effectiveness of genome sequencing to identify genetic causes in patients with likely hereditary diseases of the nervous system. In our study, genome sequencing revealed the cause of the disease in 28.6%. In cases with a negative result from the analysis of the gene panel, genome sequencing revealed the cause of the disease in 9% of patients.
