Information on this website is not a substitute for personal medical advice. Families should consult a medically qualified physician in all matters relating to genetic diagnosis, management, and health. Information about PURA and genetics in general is a very fast moving area and while the information on this website is regarded as the best at the time of publication, some facts may change later.
