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.

Primary Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase‐Positive Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor of the Small Bowel Detected by Capsule Endoscopy: A Case Report

DEN Open
Primary inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) of the small intestine is rare, and its endoscopic characteristics remain poorly defined. We report a case of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)‐positive small bowel IMT detected by capsule endoscopy (CE). A

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.

Colorectal Cancer Screening in Hereditary and Familial High‐Risk Populations: Best Practices and Future Directions

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a leading cause of cancer‐related morbidity and mortality worldwide yet is largely preventable through effective screening and surveillance. While most CRC cases are sporadic, a substantial proportion occur in individuals at increased risk due to hereditary cancer syndromes or family history who require tailored

Efficacy and safety of three-dimensional magnetically assisted capsule endoscopy for upper gastrointestinal and small bowel examination.

PLoS ONE
BackgroundMagnetically assisted capsule endoscopy (MACE) showed the feasibility for upper gastrointestinal examination. To further enhance the performance of conventional MACE, it is necessary to provide quality-improved and three-dimensional images. The

Is Less More? An Update on Aspirin for Cancer Prevention in Lynch Syndrome From the Cancer Prevention Programme—CaPP

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aspirin has been used to treat pain and fever for 120 years. Its uses expanded into treating arthritis and prevention of thrombotic events. Its anti‐cancer role emerged with observational studies in the 1980's and subsequent cancer review in those treated with aspirin in cardiovascular trials.

Recent Advances of Endoscopy in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases

Gut and Liver, 2007
Endoscopy plays a key role in the diagnosis and treatment in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The most valuable tool for distinguishing different types of IBD is a complete ileocolonoscopy with mucosal biopsy.

Urinary and Faecal Amino‐Acids as Biomarkers for Colorectal Neoplasia in Lynch Syndrome—A Prospective Longitudinal Study

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In Lynch syndrome, colonoscopy surveillance for colorectal cancer (CRC) is burdensome and post‐colonoscopy CRCs still occur. Unlike the faecal immunochemical test (FIT), gut metabolomic alterations including amino‐acids have shown potential as non‐invasive biomarkers for detecting both advanced and non‐advanced sporadic colorectal neoplasia ...

Indocyanine green for intraoperative ureteral identification in gynecologic surgery: A preliminary systematic review of feasibility, safety, and surgical outcomes

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Intraoperative ureteral injury, although uncommon, can result in significant morbidity and medicolegal consequences, particularly during complex gynecologic procedures such as endometriosis excision and prolapse repair. Conventional ureteral identification techniques, including stents and methylene blue, have recognized limitations.
