Risk of colorectal cancer by family history of both colorectal carcinomas and colorectal polyps: a nationwide cohort study

open access: yesCancer Communications, Volume 45, Issue 11, Page 1407-1416, November 2025.
Abstract Background The increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) associated with family history of both colorectal in situ or invasive carcinomas (Stage 0 to IV) and colorectal polyps is attributed solely to family history of CRC, resulting in an underestimation of the actual risk. We aimed to assess the association between overall and early‐onset CRC

Explanations of risk in families without identified mutations for hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer.

open access: yes, 2010
Genetic testing for hereditary forms of cancer does not always identify a causative mutation. Little is known about personal or family response to these indeterminate results when a hereditary form of cancer is suspected.

The Quality of Life of Patients with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer Undergoing Preoperative Chemoradiation

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Of all the neoplastic sites, colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers in the family. Studies estimate that approximately 30% of all the CRC cases are a hereditary form of the disease with a potentially high impact on the quality of life (

Inaccuracy of Ureteroscopic Biopsy in Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma Can Lead to False Therapeutic Decisions: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Do not rely solely on negative endoscopic biopsies when diagnosing upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). Repeat ureteroscopy with biopsy if initial results are negative to reduce false negatives. Frozen section analysis (FSA) can provide rapid intraoperative confirmation and guide treatment decisions.

A rare case of colonic adenocarcinoma in a pediatric patient

open access: yesJPGN Reports, Volume 6, Issue 4, Page 400-403, November 2025.
Abstract Lynch syndrome (LS) is an autosomal dominant condition caused by a loss of function in the deoxyribonucleic acid mismatch repair system. This case report presents a 17‐year‐old male with abdominal pain, weight loss, and anemia who was diagnosed with LS‐associated adenocarcinoma of the colon in the setting of a mutS homolog 6 genetic mutation ...

Integrin β6 expression in colorectal cancer cells promotes liver metastasis through enhanced adhesion to endothelial fibronectin

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, Volume 157, Issue 7, Page 1481-1495, 1 October 2025.
What's New? Integrins are critical mediators of cell adhesion and migration and have been implicated in cancer progression. Here, the authors show that endothelial cells in target organs of colorectal cancer metastasis express fibronectin, and that colorectal cancer tumour cells can bind fibronectin through integrin β6. This interaction is resistant to

Associations of the Colon Tissue Microbiome and Circulating Bile Acids With Colorectal Adenoma Among Average‐Risk Women

open access: yesCancer Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 18, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective The gut microbiome and bile acids (BAs) likely influence colorectal cancer (CRC) development and disparities. We conducted a nested case–control study of the associations of the colon tissue microbiome and circulating BAs with colorectal adenoma prevalence in the previously conducted multi‐center Colorectal Neoplasia Screening with ...

Narrative review comparing the epidemiology, characteristics, and survival in sporadic colorectal carcinoma/Lynch syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Coloproctology, 2020
Introduction: Colorectal carcinoma is the third most prevalent neoplasm in the world, and the second cause of death by cancer. The most part of these neoplasms are sporadic by somatic mutations, but around 15% are hereditary, such as Lynch syndrome or ...
