We report a unique case of early‐onset colorectal cancer with both a germline MSH6 variant and constitutional mosaic MLH1 epimutation, revealing a possible digenic mechanism underlying Lynch syndrome. This case highlights the diagnostic complexity of mismatch repair deficiency and the value of integrative tumor–germline molecular profiling.

BACKGROUND: The reported proportion of patients with familial adenomatous polyposis who have adrenal lesions varies between 7% and 13% compared with 4% in the general population; the prevalence of adrenal lesions in patients with attenuated familial adenomatous polyposis and MUTYH-associated polyposis is unknown.

Cost-utility analysis of genetic screening in families of patients with germline
Background MUTYH associated polyposis (MAP) is an autosomal recessive inherited disorder. Carriers of bi-allelic MUTYH germline mutations have a risk of approximately 60% to develop colorectal carcinoma (CRC).

Genetically Confirmed MUTYH-Associated Polyposis in Ecuador: A Model Case for Oncologic Surgery
MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP) is a rare autosomal recessive syndrome caused by biallelic mutations in the MUTYH gene, responsible for about 1% of colorectal cancers (CRCs).

Multilocus inherited neoplasia alleles syndrome (MINAS) is a rare but increasingly recognized entity characterized by germline pathogenic variants in multiple cancer susceptibility genes, leading to overlapping hereditary cancer syndromes. The growing use of next‐generation sequencing (NGS) and comprehensive genetic testing has increased MINAS ...

Germline variants in patients from the Iranian hereditary colorectal cancer registry
Background and aim Hereditary cancer syndromes account for 6–10% of all colorectal cancer (CRC) cases and 20% of early-onset CRC. Identifying novel pathogenic germline variants can impact genetic testing, counseling, and surveillance. This study aimed to

Familial Adenomatous Polyposis: Experience from a Study of 1164 Unrelated German Polyposis Patients
The autosomal-dominant precancerous condition familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is caused by germline mutations in the tumour suppressor gene APC.
