Overview

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer is an autosomal dominant genetic disease characterized by an early onset of colon cancer, endometrial cancer, and other malignant tumors. Development of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer is the result of multiple genetic mutations. The genes involved in the pathogenesis of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer include: MSH-2, MLH-1, MSH-6, PMS-2 , PMS-1, TGF-BR2, and MLH-3. This syndrome occurs most commonly in the proximal colon (60% to 80%). Endometrial cancer is the most common sentinel cancer among female patients with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer.

Pathogenesis

Genetics

The table below lists the genes involved in the pathogenesis of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer:
Genes implicated in hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer Frequency of mutations in hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer families Locus
MSH2 Approximately 60% 2p22
MLH1 Approximately 30% 3p21
MSH6 7 - 10% 2p16
PMS2 Relatively infrequent 7p22
PMS1 Case report 2q31-q33
TGFBR2 Case report 3p22
MLH3 Disputed 14q24.3
