DESCRIPTION:
Some tiered variants missing in the Congenica Portal

SUMMARY OF IMPACT:
Further to our communication to you yesterday, we are still working with Congenica to find the root cause of the issue where some cases do not show all tiered variants in the Congenica portal.

Congenica have found that the issue affects cases that were archived and then restored after the Congenica v4.0 release on Saturday, 15 November 2025. During the archiving process, a small number of variants (less than 1%) were not included in the archive file. When these cases are restored, the missing variants do not appear in the main Variant table.

Current understanding:
- Cases archived and restored before 15 November 2025: Unaffected
- Cases archived before 15 November 2025 and restored after the upgrade: Unaffected
- Cases archived after 15 November 2025: Affected. Any restored case of this type may have missing variants.

Congenica have disabled the archiving function while they investigate the issue further.

Recommended Actions:
- Do not start analysis in Congenica on any case archived after 15 November 2025 until further notice. A list of affected cases will be emailed to each GLH imminently. You can still review tiered variants using the Interpretation Browser (or the New Interpretation Browser).
- Any other cases that were archived before 14 November 2025 may proceed as usual.

DESCRIPTION:
Some tiered variants missing in the Congenica Portal

SUMMARY OF IMPACT:
We are aware of an issue in Congenica where it appears that in some referrals not all tiered variants are being displayed. We have raised the issue with Congenica and will update when we have more information.

In the meantime, you can assess tiered variants in either the Interpretation Browser or the New Interpretation Browser

These guides can help you with the workaround options:
Interpret your referral without a DSS
New Interpretation Portal Guide

We apologise for any inconvenience this may be causing you.
