Alpha 1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) can present with liver dysfunction in individuals from infancy to adulthood, and more infamously with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD), usually when over 30 years of age. Individuals with AATD are also at increased risk for panniculitis (migratory, inflammatory, tender skin nodules which may ulcerate on legs and lower abdomen) and C-ANCA-positive vasculitis (granulomatosis with polyangiitis). For diagnosis of AATD, testing for the serum level of AAT is also required.
This test will tell you whether you have one or two abnormal genes controlling the production of alpha 1 antitrypsin. This test is only needed therefore if the serum level of alpha 1 antitrypsin has been already tested and confirmed to be low.
