Almost 100 years ago Lynch syndrome was discovered by Dr Aldred Warthin. Initially, the syndrome was named Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer as colorectal cancer seemed most prevalent. Over time uterine cancer and several other malignancies were recognized as part of the spectrum.

Current Opinion in Oncology, 1993
The Lynch syndromes, also referred to as hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, are reviewed, with particular attention given to their natural history, diagnosis, surveillance, and management. Lynch syndrome I is characterized by an autosomal dominantly inherited predisposition to early onset colorectal cancer, with proximal predominance and an ...

ABSTRACTColorectal cancer is a rare disease in the pediatric age group and, when present, suggests an underlying genetic predisposition. The most common hereditary colon cancer susceptibility condition, Lynch syndrome (LS), previously known as hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, is an autosomal dominant condition caused by a germline mutation in

Die Pathologie
Patients with Lynch syndrome, one of the most common hereditary tumor predisposition syndromes, harbor an increased risk for a broad spectrum of especially gastrointestinal and gynecological tumors. Causative for the syndrome are variants in DNA mismatch repair genes, which are passed on to the offspring at a 50% chance (autosomal dominant inheritance).

Identification of Lynch Syndrome
Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America, 2022Lynch syndrome (LS) is an autosomal dominant hereditary cancer syndrome caused by pathogenic germline variants (PGV) in any of the 4 DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes, MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2, or deletions in EPCAM. LS leads to an increased risk of intestinal and extraintestinal cancers, of which colorectal and endometrial cancers are the most common.

Since the discovery of the major human genes with DNA mismatch repair (MMR) function in 1993-1995, mutations in four, MSH2, MLH1, MSH6, and PMS2, have been convincingly linked to susceptibility of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC)/Lynch syndrome.

Question: A 35-year-old man with Lynch syndrome presented for evaluation of progressive solid food dysphagia of 2 months’ duration. Lynch syndrome was confirmed by MSH2 mutation testing and family history of young-onset colon cancer. Annual screening colonoscopies since age 25 were normal.

Chemoprevention in Lynch syndrome
Familial Cancer, 2013CAPP1 tested aspirin 600 mg/day and/or resistant starch 30 g/day in 200 adolescent FAP carriers. Aspirin treatment resulted in a non-significant reduction in polyp number and a significant reduction in polyp size among patients treated with aspirin for more than 1 year. CAPP2 RCT used the same interventions in 937 Lynch syndrome patients, the first RCT
