Living at genetic risk: The patient experience of Lynch syndrome

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Lynch syndrome is a germline cancer predisposition syndrome caused by a variant in one of four genes. Lynch syndrome places individuals at significantly higher risk for a range of cancers, especially colorectal and endometrial. Depending on which gene is affected, the risk of ovarian, gastric, small bowel, pancreatic, biliary urothelial, brain,

A multilevel perspective on MSH6‐associated Lynch syndrome: Integrating molecular, biological, and clinical insights

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Lynch syndrome (LS) is the most common hereditary colorectal cancer syndrome, caused by a germline pathogenic variant in one of the mismatch repair (MMR) genes. Among these, MSH6‐associated LS represents a distinct subtype with unique molecular and clinical characteristics.

Artificial Intelligence in Colonoscopy Surveillance for Lynch Syndrome: Emerging Evidence, Lessons Learned From Average‐Risk Populations, and Future Directions

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lynch syndrome (LS) is the most common hereditary colorectal cancer (CRC) syndrome and is characterized by an accelerated adenoma‐carcinoma sequence, a relatively higher prevalence of flat and subtle CRC precursor lesions, and exceptionally high adenoma miss rates despite intensive colonoscopy surveillance.

Can the Parallel or Tandem Combination of Questionnaire‐Based Risk Assessment and Fecal Immunochemical Test Improve the Efficiency of Colorectal Cancer Screening?

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Colorectal cancer screening reduces disease burden, but the comparative performance of screening strategies remains unclear. This population‐based study shows that the tandem strategy (positive results from both questionnaire‐based risk assessment and fecal immunochemical testing) substantially improved the detection rates of colorectal cancer and ...
