Prevalence of MUTYH Monoallelic Variants in Patients With Hereditary Cancer Using Multigene Panel Testing [PDF]
Background The MUTYH gene is involved in DNA repair and is known for MAP (MUTYH‐associated polyposis), an autosomal recessive disorder that predisposes individuals to colorectal cancer (CRC), with a lifetime risk ranging from 40% to 90%.

Familial Adenomatous Polyposis-Risk of Cancer, Cancer Prevention, and Long-Term Consequences: Learnings from Five Decades with the Danish Polyposis Register. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a hereditary condition marked by the growth of hundreds to thousands of adenomatous polyps in the colon and rectum, significantly elevating the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) if left untreated. Caused by pathogenic variants in the APC gene, FAP is typically identified in adolescence, often leading to ...

MUTYH Associated Polyposis (MAP) [PDF]
MUTYH Associated Polyposis (MAP), a Polyposis predisposition caused by biallelic mutations in the Base Excision Repair (BER) gene MUTYH, confers a marked risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). The MAP phenotype is difficult to distinguish from other hereditary CRC syndromes.
