Description:
The skin biopsy will be carried out for patients with a diagnosis of Niemann Pick. The biopsy is performed by the physician by means of punch biopsy (diameter 2-3 mm) under local anesthesia, preferably on the forearm (alternatively: thigh). The biopsy is immediately transferred to sterile cell culture medium and sent by center representative for the quickest possible processing to CENTOGENE's laboratory located in Germany or to professional collaborators being part of the project.
