Familial Adenomatous Polyposis—Risk of Cancer, Cancer Prevention, and Long‐Term Consequences: Learnings from Five Decades with the Danish Polyposis Register

APMIS, Volume 134, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a hereditary condition marked by the growth of hundreds to thousands of adenomatous polyps in the colon and rectum, significantly elevating the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) if left untreated. Caused by pathogenic variants in the APC gene, FAP is typically identified in adolescence, often leading to ...

Toward Timely Diagnosis of Pancreatic Cancer: Revolutionizing Early Detection Through Genomics, Artificial Intelligence, and Noninvasive Biomarkers

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Volume 41, Issue 3, Page 895-913, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains one of the most aggressive cancers, typically diagnosed at an advanced stage due to its subtle and often absent early symptoms. Despite representing only 3% of new cancer cases, it is projected to become the second leading cause of cancer‐related deaths by 2030.
