We compared test outcomes for PTCH1 CNV detection using multiplex ligation-probe amplification (MLPA) and digital droplet PCR (ddPCR) with samples from a BCNS patient heterozygous for a PTCH1 CNV duplication and the patient’s father, suspected to have a mosaic form of BCNS. The gene discussed is PTCH1; the disease is nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome.
