Lynch syndrome was synonymous with hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer for a long time, however, mapping of the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes has led to distinguish Lynch syndrome as an independent syndromic unit from a number of Lynch-like ...

Lynch syndrome (LS) is an autosomal-dominant disease characterized by an increased cancer susceptibility, particularly of the colon and endometrium. LS is caused by a constitutional heterozygous loss-of-function mutation or epimutation in one of the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 or PMS2).

Molecular subtype classification of urothelial carcinoma in Lynch syndrome
Lynch syndrome confers an increased risk for urothelial carcinoma (UC). Molecular subtypes may be relevant to prognosis and therapeutic possibilities, but have to date not been defined in Lynch syndrome‐associated urothelial cancer. We aimed to provide a

IDH1 mutated low grade astrocytoma occurring in MSH2 mutated Lynch syndrome family
Lynch syndrome (LS) is an autosomal dominant tumour predisposition syndrome caused by a germline mutation in one of the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes.Patients with these mutations have an increased risk of brain tumours, the vast majority of which are ...

Differentiating Lynch-Like From Lynch Syndrome [PDF]
Lynch syndrome is a hereditary condition found in ~3% of all colorectal cancer patients and is defined by germline inactivation in one of the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes (hMSH2, hMLH1, hMSH6, hPMS2) (1,2). One allele is inactivated in every cell in a Lynch syndrome patient most commonly by pathogenic mutation or deletion of hMSH2 or hMLH1, or less ...
