Re-exploration of vertical rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap for vaginal reconstruction: Case report and review of the literature. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The vertical rectus abdominis myocutaneous (VRAM) flap is a versatile and well-established reconstructive technique for many defects created as a result of colorectal and gynecologic extirpation. However, major re-operation in the pelvis following a VRAM

Case Report: A New Subtype of Lynch Syndrome Associated With MSH2 c.1024_1026 Identified in a Chinese Family

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
BackgroundLynch syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder associated with a high incidence of various cancer types. Multiple variants of mismatch repair genes have been reported for Lynch syndrome. However, the diagnosis in patients with atypical cancer

Evaluation of current prediction models for Lynch syndrome: updating the PREMM5 model to identify PMS2 mutation carriers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Until recently, no prediction models for Lynch syndrome (LS) had been validated for PMS2 mutation carriers. We aimed to evaluate MMRpredict and PREMM5 in a clinical cohort and for PMS2 mutation carriers specifically.

Pathological diagnosis experience and literature review of four cases suspected Lynch-like syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology
BackgroundAmong CRC patients with mismatch repair protein deficiency or microsatellite instability (MSI), up to 50% of cases lack germline mutations in MMR genes, BRAF mutations, or MLH1 promoter methylation. Such cases are defined as Lynch-like syndrome

Association of a novel point mutation in MSH2 gene with familial multiple primary cancers

open access: yesJournal of Hematology & Oncology, 2017
Background Multiple primary cancers (MPC) have been identified as two or more cancers without any subordinate relationship that occur either simultaneously or metachronously in the same or different organs of an individual. Lynch syndrome is an autosomal

Comprehensive characterization of CRC with germline mutations reveals a distinct somatic mutational landscape and elevated cancer risk in the Chinese population

open access: yesCancer Biology & Medicine, 2022
Objective: Hereditary colorectal cancer (CRC) accounts for approximately 5%–10% of all CRC cases. The full profile of CRC-related germline mutations and the corresponding somatic mutational profile have not been fully determined in the Chinese population.
