MeSH Heading: Colorectal Neoplasms, Hereditary Nonpolyposis
Tree Number(s): C04.588.274.476.411.307.190; C04.700.250; C06.301.371.411.307.190; C06.405.249.411.307.190; C06.405.469.158.356.190; C06.405.469.491.307.190; C16.320.700.250; C18.452.284.255
Unique ID: D003123
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D003123
Scope Note: A group of autosomal-dominant inherited diseases in which COLON CANCER arises in discrete adenomas. Unlike FAMILIAL POLYPOSIS COLI with hundreds of polyps, hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms occur much later, in the fourth and fifth decades. HNPCC has been associated with germline mutations in mismatch repair (MMR) genes. It has been subdivided into Lynch syndrome I or site-specific colonic cancer, and LYNCH SYNDROME II which includes extracolonic cancer.
