Overview
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer may be classified according to MSI-H into 3 subtypes: right-sided poorly differentiated cancers, right-sided mucinous cancers, and adenocarcinomas in any location showing any measurable level of intraepithelial lymphocyte (TIL). In addition, HNPCC can be divided into Lynch syndrome I (familial colon cancer) and Lynch syndrome II (HNPCC associated with other cancers of the gastrointestinal tract or reproductive system).[1]
Classification
Lynch syndrome I (familial colon cancer)
- Site-specific colonic cancer
Lynch syndrome II
- Extracolonic cancer
- Includes extracolonic cancer, particularly carcinoma of the stomach, endometrium
- Associated condition, Muir-Torre syndrome
