PURPOSE: Predictive genetic testing for adult-onset conditions, such as Huntington disease, is available to at-risk adults. Guidelines consistently recommend against such testing before adulthood unless there is associated medical benefit. Guidelines, and related commentary, cite a range of potential harms that might be associated with young people undergoing testing, yet evidence is limited. Clinical practice...
