Abstract:
Lynch syndrome(LS),also known as hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer(HNPCC),is an autosomal dominant hereditary disease caused by DNA mismatch repair(MMR) gene mutation.It is characterized by familial aggregation,early onset,mostly in the right colon,with synchronous or metachronous extraintestinal malignant tumors.Colorectal cancer(CRC) and endometrial cancer(EC) are the most common LS-related tumors.Other tumors include small bowel cancer,gastric cancer,cholangiocarcinoma,ovarian cancer,renal pelvis/ureteral cancer,sebaceous gland tumor and so on.EC is the most common LS-related extraintestinal tumor,with a lifetime risk of 40% to 60%.Studies have shown that female mismatch repair gene carriers have a lifetime risk of developing EC that outweighs the risk of CRC.At present,the domestic research on endometrial carcinoma related to Lynch syndrome(LS-EC) is still in its infancy,and not enough attention has been paid to the screening and diagnosis of LS-EC.This article reviews the pathogenesis,screening,diagnosis,clinicopathological features,prevention and treatment of LS-EC.
