Abstract
Survivors of colorectal cancer (CRC) are at risk of developing another primary colorectal cancer - metachronous CRC. Understanding which pathological features of the first tumour are associated with risk of metachronous CRC might help tailor existing surveillance guidelines. Population-based CRC cases were recruited from the United States, Canada and Australia between 1997 and 2012 and followed prospectively until 2022 by the Colon Cancer Family Registry. Metachronous CRC was defined as a new primary CRC diagnosed at least 1 year after the initial CRC. Those with the genetic cancer predisposition Lynch syndrome or MUTYH mutation carriers were excluded. Cox regression models were fitted to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the associations. Of 6085 CRC cases, 138 (2.3%) were diagnosed with a metachronous CRC over a median follow-up time of 12 years (incidence: 2.0 per 1000 person-years). CRC cases with a synchronous CRC were 3.4-fold more likely to develop a metachronous CRC (adjusted HR: 3.36, 95% CI: 1.89-5.98) than those without a synchronous tumour. CRC cases with MMR-deficient tumours had a 72% increased risk of metachronous CRC (adjusted HR: 1.72, 95% CI: 1.11-2.64) compared to those with MMR-proficient tumours. Compared to cases who had an adenocarcinoma histologic type, those with an undifferentiated histologic type were 77% less likely to develop a metachronous CRC (adjusted HR: 0.23, 95% CI: 0.06-0.94). Existing surveillance guidelines for CRC survivors could be updated to include increased surveillance for those whose first CRC was diagnosed with a synchronous CRC or was MMR-deficient.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study evaluated the risk of metachronous colorectal cancer (CRC) after resection of index (first) rectal cancer in patients with Lynch syndrome (LS). METHODS Clinicopathological data of patients with genetically proven LS were retrospectively analyzed in this multicenter Japanese study. The cumulative incidence of metachronous CRC and the overall survival were compared between patients with index rectal cancer (rectal group) and those with index colon cancer (colon group). RESULTS The median age at index CRC surgery was lower in the rectal group than in the colon group (37 vs. 46 years old, P = 0.01). The cumulative 5-, 10-, and 20-year incidences of metachronous CRC were 3.5%, 13.9%, and 21.1%, respectively, in the rectal cancer group and 14.9%, 22.0%, and 57.9%, respectively, in the colon cancer group (P = 0.02). The overall survival curves were not significantly different between two groups (P = 0.23). CONCLUSION This is the first report from an East Asian country to report the risk of metachronous CRC after resection of index rectal cancer in patients with LS. Despite this study having several limitations, we cannot recommend extended resection, such as total proctocolectomy, for index rectal cancer as a standard surgical treatment in patients with LS.

Effect of genetic profiling on surgical decisions at hereditary colorectal cancer syndromes. Heliyon 2024; 10:e34375.

Abstract
Hereditary colorectal cancer syndromes, such as Lynch syndrome and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), present significant clinical challenges due to the heightened cancer risks associated with these genetic conditions. This review explores genetic profiling impact on surgical decisions for hereditary colorectal cancer (HCRC), assessing options, timing, and outcomes. Genotypes of different HCRCs are discussed, revealing a connection between genetic profiles, disease severity, and outcomes. For Lynch syndrome, mutations in the MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2 genes guide the choice of surgery. Subtotal colectomy is recommended for patients with mutations in MLH1 and MSH2, while segmental colectomy is preferred for those with MSH6 and PMS2 mutations. In cases of metachronous colon cancer after segmental colectomy, subtotal colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis is advised for all mutations. Surgical strategies for primary rectal cancer include anterior resection or abdominoperineal resection (APR), irrespective of the specific mutation. For rectal cancer occurring after a previous segmental colectomy, proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) or APR with a permanent ileostomy is recommended. In FAP, surgical decisions are based on genotype-phenotype correlations. The risk of desmoid tumors post-surgery supports a single-stage approach, particularly for certain APC gene variants. Juvenile Polyposis Syndrome (JPS) surgical decisions involve genetic testing, polyp characteristics with attention to vascular lesions in SMAD4 mutation carriers. However, genetic profiling does not directly dictate the specific surgical approach for JPS. In conclusion this review highlights the critical role of personalized surgical plans based on genetic profiles to optimize patient outcomes and reduce cancer risk. Further research is needed to refine these strategies and enhance clinical guidelines.

Abstract
Microsatellite instability is rare in rectal cancer and associated with younger age of onset and Lynch syndrome. All rectal cancers should be tested for microsatellite instability prior to treatment decisions. Patients with microsatellite instability are relatively resistant to chemotherapy. However, recent small studies have shown dramatic response with neoadjuvant immunotherapy. Patients with Lynch syndrome have a hereditary predisposition to cancer and thus an elevated risk of metachronous cancer. Therefore, while "watch and wait" is a well-established practice for sporadic rectal cancers that obtain a complete clinical response after chemoradiation, its safety in patients with Lynch syndrome has not yet been defined. The extent of surgery for patients with Lynch syndrome and rectal cancer is controversial and there is significant debate as to the relative advantages of a segmental proctectomy with postoperative endoscopic surveillance versus a therapeutic and prophylactic total proctocolectomy. Surgical decision making for the patient with Lynch syndrome and rectal cancer is complex and demands a multidisciplinary approach, taking into account both patient- and tumor-specific factors. Neoadjuvant immunotherapy show great promise in the treatment of these patients, and further maturation of data from prospective trials will likely change the current treatment paradigm. Patients with Lynch syndrome and rectal cancer who do not undergo total proctocolectomy require yearly surveillance colonoscopies and should consider chemoprophylaxis with aspirin.

Abstract
Lynch syndrome is the most common cause of hereditary colorectal cancer. It usually develops asymptomatically until symptoms related to colorectal carcinoma appear, such as gastrointestinal bleeding, abdominal pain, and changes in bowel habits and/or stool characteristics. Oftentime, when these clinical signs and symptoms are not present, the diagnosis becomes challenging. We present the clinical case of a 69-year-old woman, adopted, with no known previous history, who presented to the emergency department with low back pain, without irradiation, that had been going on for three days, associated with inflammatory signs in the right hip region. There were no urinary or sensory alterations and no recent trauma. She was initially discharged with antibiotherapy with the diagnosis of hip cellulitis. As the symptoms continued and the inflammation spread to the right lower limb, she returned to the emergency department. A CT scan revealed an abscess (17 cm) in the right buttock, complicated by necrotizing fasciitis due to fistulization from a tumor in the right colon. She underwent an exploratory laparotomy, which identified a neoplasm of the ascending colon, adherent to the abdominal wall, in the right lumbar region. Right hemicolectomy and drainage of the right buttock/thigh abscess were performed. The histology was compatible with invasive adenocarcinoma, with high-grade dysplasia but well differentiated, pT3G1N0. The immunohistochemistry was suggestive of Lynch syndrome.

Abstract
Patients with Lynch syndrome are predisposed to developing colorectal cancer and a variety of extracolonic malignancies, at a young age. The management of rectal cancer in the setting of Lynch syndrome is a complex clinical scenario that requires the expertise of a multidisciplinary management team. In this review, we delve into the approach for rectal cancer in these patients, and specifically focus on several key aspects of treatment. Some unique aspects of rectal cancer in Lynch syndrome include the decision between proctectomy alone versus total proctocolectomy with or without an ileal pouch, the utility of chemotherapy and immunotherapy, nonoperative rectal cancer management, and the management of rectal polyps. Throughout, we highlight the delicate interplay between future cancer risk reduction and quality of life optimization.

Metachronous colorectal cancer risk according to Lynch syndrome pathogenic variant after extensive versus partial colectomy in the Netherlands: a retrospective cohort study. Lancet Gastroenterol Hepatol 2023; 8:1106-1117. [PMID: 37865103 DOI: 10.1016/s2468-1253(23)00228-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2023] [Revised: 06/30/2023] [Accepted: 07/03/2023] [Indexed: 10/23/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Extensive colectomy (subtotal or total colectomy) is often advised for carriers of Lynch syndrome with colorectal cancer. However, the risk of metachronous colorectal cancer might differ by Lynch syndrome variant, meaning that partial colectomy, which has better functional outcomes, might be adequate for some patients with low-risk variants. We aimed to assess the risk of metachronous colorectal cancer after partial colectomy and extensive colectomy in carriers of Lynch syndrome with different pathogenic variants. METHODS For this retrospective cohort study, carriers of Lynch syndrome with colorectal cancer in the Netherlands were identified by linkage of the Dutch Foundation for the Detection of Hereditary Tumors (StOET) database and the Dutch Nationwide Network and Registry of Histopathology and Cytopathology (PALGA) database. Data on demographics, Lynch syndrome variants, colorectal cancers, surgery types, mortality, and surveillance colonoscopies were extracted. Data on colorectal cancer and surveillance colonoscopies were updated until Feb 28, 2022. Data on survival status was updated until Feb 7, 2022. MLH1, MSH2, and EPCAM were classified as high-risk variants and MSH6 and PMS2 as low-risk variants. Patients for whom the type of surgery was unknown were excluded. Cox regression time-to-event analyses were done to assess the risk of metachronous colorectal cancer in four subgroups based on pathogenic variant (high-risk vs low-risk variants) and the extent of surgery (extensive colectomy vs partial colectomy). Sex, age at the time of primary colorectal cancer, primary colorectal cancer stage, performance of surveillance colonoscopies, adherence to the surveillance guidelines, and time period of primary colorectal cancer diagnosis were added to the model as possible confounders. Metachronous colorectal cancer was defined as colorectal cancer diagnosed more than 6 months after the primary colorectal cancer. Patients were censored at time of death or assembly of the database. FINDINGS Of 1908 carriers of Lynch syndrome registered in StOET, 532 with a history of colorectal cancer were identified after linkage with PALGA. Five carriers were excluded because of an unknown surgery type, leaving 527 in our sample (mean age at primary colorectal cancer 48·7 years [SD 12·1]; 274 [52%] male and 253 [48%] female). 121 (23%) patients developed metachronous colorectal cancer (median time from primary colorectal cancer to metachronous colorectal cancer 11·0 years [IQR 2·1-17·8]). Metachronous colorectal cancer occurred in 12 (12%) of 97 patients with high-risk variants and extensive colectomy, in 85 (32%) of 267 patients with high-risk variants and partial colectomy, in zero (0%) of 11 patients with low-risk variants and extensive colectomy, and in 24 (16%) of 152 patients with low-risk variants and partial colectomy. Partial colectomy was associated with a higher risk of metachronous colorectal cancer than extensive colectomy in the high-risk variant group (hazard ratio 1·97, 95% CI 1·04-3·73; p=0·039). The risk of metachronous colorectal cancer did not differ between carriers of low-risk variants who had partial colectomy and those of high-risk variants who had extensive colectomy (1·14, 0·55-2·36; p=0·72). INTERPRETATION The risk of metachronous colorectal cancer after partial colectomy in carriers of low-risk variants is similar to the risk after extensive colectomy in carriers of high-risk variants. This finding suggests that partial colectomy followed by endoscopic surveillance is an appropriate management approach to treat colorectal cancer in carriers of low-risk Lynch syndrome variants. FUNDING None.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE Although synchronous and metachronous tumours of the bowel are well known associations of Lynch syndrome, the association of skin malignancies in such patients are extremely rare. CASE PRESENTATION A 40-year-old Sri Lankan man with a strong family history of colorectal cancer had an extended right hemicolectomy for a moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma. Two months after surgery, he developed two discrete ulcerative skin lesions in the chin and occipital region which excision biopsy confirmed to be squamous cell carcinoma. After more than two years of follow-up, patient remains disease free. CLINICAL DISCUSSION The Muir Torre variant of Lynch syndrome is characteristically associated with sebaceous adenomas and carcinomas, though occurence of squamous cell carcinomas are rare. In reported cases, defective mismatch repair genes associated with Lynch syndrome may suggest an increased predisposition for squamous cell carcinomas. CONCLUSION Patients with Lynch syndrome should be educated on the importance of seeking an early medical consult for new skin lesions and raising awareness of this rare phenomenon for physicians involved in follow up is important.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lynch syndrome is associated with the most common form of heritable bowel cancer. There remains limited level 1 evidence on survival outcomes and rate of metachronous tumor associated with Lynch syndrome colorectal cancer. METHODS A systematic literature search of original studies was performed on Ovid searching MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, American College of Physicians ACP Journal Club, Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effects DARE, and Clinical Trials databases from inception of database to February 2021. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses reporting guideline was followed. The data were pooled using a random-effects model. All of the P values were 2-tailed, and statistical analysis was performed using RevMan v. 5.3 Cochrane Collaboration. RESULTS From 1,942 studies, 15 studies met the inclusion criteria and were included for qualitative and quantitative synthesis. The five-year overall survival was 89.5% (82.0-94.1%), P < .01; I2 = 89%. The ten-year overall survival was 80.5% (68.7-88.6%), P < .01; I2 = 81%. The fifteen-year overall survival was 70% (33.7%-91.5%), P < .01; I2 = 93%. Univariate meta-regression analysis showed no statistically significant difference in 5-year overall survival by sex, age, MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, nor tumor location (right versus left colon). The metachronous tumor rate was 12% to 33% with a follow-up period of up to 15 years, significantly lower in patients who underwent subtotal/total colectomy (0-6%). CONCLUSION The overall survival of patients with colorectal cancer with Lynch syndrome was approximately 90% at 5 years, 80% at 10 years, and 70% at 15 years. The metachronous tumor rate was approximately 10% to 30% at up to 15 years, significantly improved by subtotal/total colectomy.

Risk of Metachronous Colorectal Cancer in Lynch Syndrome: Who Needs an Extended Resection? SURGERIES 2022. [DOI: 10.3390/surgeries3030020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Lynch syndrome (LS) is the most common genetic condition associated with early-onset colorectal cancer. It is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. The increased cancer risk is due to a germline mutation in one of the mismatch repair (MMR) genes (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2) or the EPCAM gene. This leads to a deficient DNA mismatch repair mechanism, resulting in the accumulation of nucleotide changes and microsatellite instability, providing phenotypical evidence that MMR is not functioning normally. LS is associated with a high risk of early-onset colorectal cancer and recurrence. Thus, when undergoing surgery for primary colorectal cancer, extended resection should be discussed with the patient. This review provides an overview of current surgical risk-reducing strategies in LS-associated colorectal cancer. Surgical treatment for LS carriers with colorectal cancer needs to be highly individualized, based on patient and disease characteristics. Strategies are presented to guide decision making in pathologic MMR gene mutation carriers undergoing surgery for colorectal cancer.

Abstract
Carriers of germline biallelic pathogenic variants in the MUTYH gene have a high risk of colorectal cancer. We test 5649 colorectal cancers to evaluate the discriminatory potential of a tumor mutational signature specific to MUTYH for identifying biallelic carriers and classifying variants of uncertain clinical significance (VUS). Using a tumor and matched germline targeted multi-gene panel approach, our classifier identifies all biallelic MUTYH carriers and all known non-carriers in an independent test set of 3019 colorectal cancers (accuracy = 100% (95% confidence interval 99.87-100%)). All monoallelic MUTYH carriers are classified with the non-MUTYH carriers. The classifier provides evidence for a pathogenic classification for two VUS and a benign classification for five VUS. Somatic hotspot mutations KRAS p.G12C and PIK3CA p.Q546K are associated with colorectal cancers from biallelic MUTYH carriers compared with non-carriers (p = 2 × 10-23 and p = 6 × 10-11, respectively). Here, we demonstrate the potential application of mutational signatures to tumor sequencing workflows to improve the identification of biallelic MUTYH carriers.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Germline pathogenic variants (PVs) in the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes and in the base excision repair gene MUTYH underlie hereditary colorectal cancer (CRC) and polyposis syndromes. We evaluated the robustness and discriminatory potential of tumour mutational signatures in CRCs for identifying germline PV carriers. DESIGN Whole-exome sequencing of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) CRC tissue was performed on 33 MMR germline PV carriers, 12 biallelic MUTYH germline PV carriers, 25 sporadic MLH1 methylated MMR-deficient CRCs (MMRd controls) and 160 sporadic MMR-proficient CRCs (MMRp controls) and included 498 TCGA CRC tumours. COSMIC V3 single base substitution (SBS) and indel (ID) mutational signatures were assessed for their ability to differentiate CRCs that developed in carriers from non-carriers. RESULTS The combination of mutational signatures SBS18 and SBS36 contributing >30% of a CRC's signature profile was able to discriminate biallelic MUTYH carriers from all other non-carrier control CRCs with 100% accuracy (area under the curve (AUC) 1.0). SBS18 and SBS36 were associated with specific MUTYH variants p.Gly396Asp (p=0.025) and p.Tyr179Cys (p=5×10-5), respectively. The combination of ID2 and ID7 could discriminate the 33 MMR PV carrier CRCs from the MMRp control CRCs (AUC 0.99); however, SBS and ID signatures, alone or in combination, could not provide complete discrimination (AUC 0.79) between CRCs from MMR PV carriers and sporadic MMRd controls. CONCLUSION Assessment of SBS and ID signatures can discriminate CRCs from biallelic MUTYH carriers and MMR PV carriers from non-carriers with high accuracy, demonstrating utility as a potential diagnostic and variant classification tool.

Deciding the operation type according to mismatch repair status among hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer patients: should a tailored approach be applied, or does one size fit all? Hered Cancer Clin Pract 2021; 19:29. [PMID: 34187536 PMCID: PMC8243908 DOI: 10.1186/s13053-021-00186-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2021] [Accepted: 06/09/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although extended colectomy (EC) was recommended for HNPCC patients, previous studies did not show significantly improved overall survival. Immunohistochemical (IHC) stain of mismatch repair (MMR) gene protein expression is now a feasible and reliable test clinically. Therefore, we tried to investigate whether we could use MMR IHC stain to select operation types in HNPCC patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between 1995 and 2013, 186 HNPCC patients were collected. Status of MMR protein expression, perioperative clinic-pathological variables and post-operative follow up status were analyzed by multivariate analyses. RESULTS Sixty-five percent (121 of 186) patients of these HNPCC patients demonstrated loss of at least one MMR protein. There were several significant differences existing between deficient MMR (dMMR) and proficient MMR (pMMR) subgroups in terms of clinic-pathological characteristics. With the average follow-up duration of 93.9 months, we observed significantly high risk of developing metachronous CRC between SC and EC subgroups (crude rate 8.5% vs. 0%, p = 0.035). However, no significant difference was observed among the presence of extra-colonic tumors (12.4% vs. 5.8%, p = 0.284). The positive and negative prediction rate of metachronous CRC in dMMR subgroup was 12.8 and 87.2% while 1.9 and 98.1% in the pMMR subgroup. Survival outcomes were significantly affected by MMR status and resection types by multivariate analysis. Significantly better OS in dMMR subgroup (HR = 0.479, 95% CI: 0.257-0.894, p = 0.021) comparing with pMMR subgroup was observed. However, significant improved DFS (HR = 0.367, 95% CI: 0.172-.0787, p = 0.010) but not significant for OS (HR = 0.510, 95% CI: 0.219-1.150, p = 0.103) for EC subgroup compared with SC subgroup. Differences existing among different subgroups by combing extent of resection and MMR status. In dMMR subgroup, SC, compared with EC, demonstrated significantly worse DFS by multivariate analyses (HR = 3.526, 95% CI: 1.346-9.236, p = 0.010) but not for OS (HR = 2.387, 95% CI: 0.788-7.229, p = 0.124), however, no significantly differences of OS and DFS in pMMR subgroup between SC and EC were found. CONCLUSIONS Significantly better overall survival and higher rate of metachronous CRC exist in dMMR subgroup of HNPCC patients comparing with pMMR subgroup. Extended colectomy significantly improved DFS and was thus recommended for dMMR subgroup but not pMMR subgroup of HNPCC patients.

Abstract
Hereditary colorectal cancer (HCRC) accounts for < 5% of all colorectal cancer cases. Some of the unique characteristics commonly encountered in HCRC cases include early age of onset, synchronous/metachronous cancer occurrence, and multiple cancers in other organs. These characteristics necessitate different management approaches, including diagnosis, treatment or surveillance, from sporadic colorectal cancer management. There are two representative HCRC, named familial adenomatous polyposis and Lynch syndrome. Other than these two HCRC syndromes, related disorders have also been reported. Several guidelines for hereditary disorders have already been published worldwide. In Japan, the first guideline for HCRC was prepared by the Japanese Society for Cancer of the Colon and Rectum (JSCCR), published in 2012 and revised in 2016. This revised version of the guideline was immediately translated into English and published in 2017. Since then, several new findings and novel disease concepts related to HCRC have been discovered. The currently diagnosed HCRC rate in daily clinical practice is relatively low; however, this is predicted to increase in the era of cancer genomic medicine, with the advancement of cancer multi-gene panel testing or whole genome testing, among others. Under these circumstances, the JSCCR guidelines 2020 for HCRC were prepared by consensus among members of the JSCCR HCRC Guideline Committee, based on a careful review of the evidence retrieved from literature searches, and considering the medical health insurance system and actual clinical practice settings in Japan. Herein, we present the English version of the JSCCR guidelines 2020 for HCRC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lynch syndrome is the most common genetic predisposition for hereditary cancer but remains underdiagnosed. Large prospective observational studies have recently increased understanding of the effectiveness of colonoscopic surveillance and the heterogeneity of cancer risk between genotypes. The need for gene- and gender-specific guidelines has been acknowledged. METHODS The European Hereditary Tumour Group (EHTG) and European Society of Coloproctology (ESCP) developed a multidisciplinary working group consisting of surgeons, clinical and molecular geneticists, pathologists, epidemiologists, gastroenterologists, and patient representation to conduct a graded evidence review. The previous Mallorca guideline format was used to revise the clinical guidance. Consensus for the guidance statements was acquired by three Delphi voting rounds. RESULTS Recommendations for clinical and molecular identification of Lynch syndrome, surgical and endoscopic management of Lynch syndrome-associated colorectal cancer, and preventive measures for cancer were produced. The emphasis was on surgical and gastroenterological aspects of the cancer spectrum. Manchester consensus guidelines for gynaecological management were endorsed. Executive and layperson summaries were provided. CONCLUSION The recommendations from the EHTG and ESCP for identification of patients with Lynch syndrome, colorectal surveillance, surgical management of colorectal cancer, lifestyle and chemoprevention in Lynch syndrome that reached a consensus (at least 80 per cent) are presented.

Delivery of Personalized Care for Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer: Incorporating Pathological, Molecular Genetic, and Immunological Biomarkers Into the Multimodal Paradigm. Front Oncol 2020; 10:1369. [PMID: 32923389 PMCID: PMC7456909 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2020.01369] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2019] [Accepted: 06/29/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Approximately one-third of all newly diagnosed colorectal cancer (CRC) is composed of rectal cancer, with the incidence rising in younger patients. The principal neoadjuvant treatments consist of neoadjuvant short-course radiotherapy and long-course chemoradiation. Locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) is particularly challenging to manage given the anatomical constrictions of the pelvis and the risk for local recurrence. In appropriately treated patients, 5- and 10-year overall survival is estimated at 60 and 50%, respectively. The prognosis for LARC has improved in recent years with more access to screening, advances in surgical techniques, and perioperative care. Furthermore, the refinement of the multidisciplinary team with combined-modality management strategies has improved outcomes. These advancements have been augmented by significant improvements in the understanding of the underlying tumor biology. However, there are many instances where patient outcomes do not match those for their tumor stage and accurate prognostic information for individual patients can be difficult to estimate owing to the heterogeneous nature of LARC. Many new combinations of chemotherapy with radiotherapy, including total neoadjuvant therapy with targeted therapies that aim to diminish toxicity and increase survival, are being evaluated in clinical trials. Despite these advances, local recurrence and distant metastasis remain an issue, with one-third of LARC patients dying within 5 years of initial treatment. Although much of the new pathological, molecular genetics, and immunological biomarkers allow refinement in the classification and prognostication of CRC, the relative importance of each of these factors with regards to the development and progression of LARC remains incompletely understood. These factors are often insufficiently validated and seldom consider the individual characteristics of the host, the tumor and its location, the local available expertise, or the probable location of recurrence. Appreciating the mechanisms behind these differences will allow for a more comprehensive, personalized approach and more informed treatment options, leading to ultimately superior outcomes. This review aims to first outline the current multidisciplinary context in which LARC care should be delivered and then discuss how some key prognosticators, including novel histopathological, molecular genetics, and immunological biomarkers, might fit into the wider context of personalized LARC management in the coming years.

Abstract
Background Although hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) could be subtyped into proficient or deficient mismatch repair gene expression (pMMR or dMMR), distinct clinical features between these two subgroups patients were rarely reported. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 175 hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) patients between January 1995 and December 2012. Cox proportional hazards model was used to compare the differences between two subgroups. Results Significant differences of disease free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) exist between dMMR and pMMR. In addition to other factors including younger mean age of diagnosis for dMMR patients (48.6 years vs. 54.3 years), operation type (more extended colectomy for dMMR 35.8% vs. 14.5%), tumor location (right colon predominance for dMMR 61.7% vs. 27.3% and more rectum cases for pMMR 41.8% vs. 11.7%), tumor differentiation (more poor differentiation for dMMR 23.3% vs. 9.0%), N staging (more N0 cases for dMMR 70.8% vs. 50.9%), more frequently presence of extra-colonic tumors for dMMR (16.7% vs.1.8%), and lower recurrence rates (9.1% vs.35.3%). Significantly different cumulative incidences of developing metachronous colorectal cancer were observed with 6.18 for pMMR patients and 20.57 person-years for dMMR patients (p < 0.001). Conclusions Distinct clinicopathological features significantly exist between dMMR and pMMR subtypes patient, MMR status should be consider to tailor operation types and follow up surveillance between these two subgroups patients who all fulfilled with Amsterdam-II criteria.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The risk of cancers is well characterized in Lynch syndrome (LS) families but has been less studied in familial colorectal cancer type X (FCCTX) families. METHODS In this article, we compare the risk estimates of first and second colorectal cancers (CRCs) in 168 FCTTX and 780 LS families recruited through the Colon Cancer Family Registry as well as the risk of cancer-related deaths and disease-free survival (DFS) after a first CRC. Our methodology is based on a survival analysis approach, developed specifically to model the occurrence of successive cancers (ie, first and second CRCs) in the presence of competing risk events (ie, death from any causes). RESULTS We found an excess risk of first and second CRC in individuals with LS compared to FCCTX family members. However, for an average age at first CRC of 60 years in FCCTX families and 50 years in LS families, the DFS rates were comparable in men but lower in women from FCCTX vs LS families, eg , 75.1% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 69.0% to 80.9%) vs 78.9% (95% CI = 76.3% to 81.3%) for the 10-year DFS. The 10-year risk of cancer-related death was higher in FCCTX families vs LS families, eg, 15.4% in men (95% CI = 10.9% to 19.8%) and 19.3% in women (95% CI = 13.6% to 24.7%) vs 8.9% (95% CI = 7.5% to 11.4%) and 8.7% (95% CI = 7.1% to 10.8%), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Individuals with CRCs arising in the context of FCCTX do not experience the same improved DFS and overall survival of those with LS, and that difference may be relevant in management decisions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Regular endoscopic surveillance for Lynch syndrome is reported to reduce colorectal cancer (CRC)-related mortality. However, the appropriate surveillance intervals are still unclear. We evaluated the adequacy of annual colonoscopy and investigated the differences in tumor occurrence rates between individual patients. METHODS In total, 25 patients with Lynch syndrome who underwent colonoscopic surveillance between 2007 and 2016 at the Iwakuni Clinical Center were included. We retrospectively investigated the surveillance frequency and the clinical features associated with tumor development. RESULTS Colonoscopic surveillance was performed every 397 days on average. A total of 101 tumors, including 8 intramucosal carcinomas and 15 carcinomas, were observed within the study period. Annual colonoscopy detected six malignancies, including a carcinoma requiring surgery. Tumor incidence was associated with tumor existence in the initial colonoscopies (P = 0.018). Patients with a tumor occurrence rate of 0.4 tumors per year during our observation period were significantly more likely to have malignancies detected during regular surveillance than patients who had a lower occurrence rate (P < 0.001). Malignancy occurrence rate was strongly associated with tumor occurrence rate (P < 0.001, R2 = 0.44). CONCLUSIONS Annual colonoscopic surveillance for Lynch syndrome patients was effective in reducing the risk of CRC progression, but was insufficient to completely avoid surgery. Because the tumor occurrence rate differed substantially between individuals, more intensive surveillance was required for high-risk patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Risk factors for metachronous colorectal cancer (mCRC) in Lynch Syndrome (LS) patients are essential for colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment strategy to perform not only a curative but also preventive surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk factors for mCRC development in LS patients to define the patient subset that may benefit an extended curative and preventive surgical resection. METHODS Patient's clinical history, oncological, molecular and follow-up were collected retrospectively from the Hereditary Digestive Tumors Registry at the National Cancer Institute of Milan. The age-related cumulative risk of mCRC was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Factors significantly associated with mCRC were analyzed with a Cox regression model. Overall and specific competitive risks were also calculated. RESULTS In a total of 1346 CRC patients, 159 (11.8%) developed a mCRC after a mean follow-up of 138 months from the primary tumor. The independent risk factors reported by a multivariate analysis were: pathogenetic variants in MLH1 and MSH2 (HR 2.96 and 1.91, respectively) and history of colorectal adenomas (HR 1.54); whereas female sex and extended surgery were protective (HR 0.59 and 0.79, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Among a high-risk population for CRC, in particular LS, an extended surgery may be considered in CRC patients with specific risk factors (MLH1 or MSH2 germline pathogenic variants, history of colorectal adenomas) to reduce the risk of mCRC development.

Abstract
Heritable factors account for approximately 35% of colorectal cancer (CRC) risk, and almost 30% of the population in the UK have a family history of CRC. The quantification of an individual's lifetime risk of gastrointestinal cancer may incorporate clinical and molecular data, and depends on accurate phenotypic assessment and genetic diagnosis. In turn this may facilitate targeted risk-reducing interventions, including endoscopic surveillance, preventative surgery and chemoprophylaxis, which provide opportunities for cancer prevention. This guideline is an update from the 2010 British Society of Gastroenterology/Association of Coloproctology of Great Britain and Ireland (BSG/ACPGBI) guidelines for colorectal screening and surveillance in moderate and high-risk groups; however, this guideline is concerned specifically with people who have increased lifetime risk of CRC due to hereditary factors, including those with Lynch syndrome, polyposis or a family history of CRC. On this occasion we invited the UK Cancer Genetics Group (UKCGG), a subgroup within the British Society of Genetic Medicine (BSGM), as a partner to BSG and ACPGBI in the multidisciplinary guideline development process. We also invited external review through the Delphi process by members of the public as well as the steering committees of the European Hereditary Tumour Group (EHTG) and the European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE). A systematic review of 10 189 publications was undertaken to develop 67 evidence and expert opinion-based recommendations for the management of hereditary CRC risk. Ten research recommendations are also prioritised to inform clinical management of people at hereditary CRC risk.

Abstract
Purpose In order to clarify which variants of the MMR gene could provide current "healthy" members in affected families a more accurate risk assessment or predictive testing. Patients and Methods One family, which meets the criteria according to both Amsterdam I/II and Bethesda guidelines, is reported in this study. The proband and some relatives of the patient have been investigated for whole genome sequencing, microsatellite instability, immunohistochemical MMR protein staining and verified by Sanger sequencing. Results A heterozygous insertion of uncertain significance (c.420dup, p.Met141Tyrfs) in MSH2 gene was found in proband (III-16) and part of His relatives. The variant was associated with a lack of expression of MSH2 protein (MMR deficient) and high microsatellite instability analysis (MSI) status in tumor tissues of LS patients. In addition, we found that the variant could affect the expression of MSH2 and the response to chemotherapy drugs in vitro. Conclusion We identified an insertion mutation (rs1114167810, c.420dup, p.Met141Tyrfs) in MSH2 in LS using whole genome-wide sequencing (WGS). We further confirmed that this mutation plays an important role in LS patients of this pedigree based on in vivo and vitro study.

[PMID: 32007537 DOI: 10.1016/j.jamcollsurg.2020.01.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2019] [Accepted: 01/16/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Because of increased risk of metachronous colorectal cancer (CRC), all patients with Lynch syndrome (LS) are offered a total colectomy. However, because metachronous CRC rate by mismatch repair (MMR) gene is uncertain, and total colectomy negatively impacts quality of life, it remains unclear whether segmental resection is indicated for lower penetrance MMR genes. We evaluated metachronous CRC incidence according to MMR gene in LS patients who underwent a segmental colectomy. STUDY DESIGN Single-center, retrospective cohort study in patients with an earlier colectomy for CRC and an MMR germline mutation in MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, or PMS2 followed prospectively in a hereditary CRC family registry. All patients underwent surveillance colonoscopy. Metachronous CRC was defined as one detected more than 1 year after index resection. Primary end point was cumulative incidence of metachronous CRC overall and by MMR gene. RESULTS One hundred and ten patients were included: 35 with MLH1 likely pathogenic/pathogenic (LP/P) variants (32%), 42 MSH2 (38%), 20 MSH6 (18%), and 13 PMS2 (12%). Median follow-up 4.26 years (range 0.53 to 19.92 years). Overall, metachronous CRC developed in 22 patients (20%). At 10-year follow-up, incidence was 12% (95% CI 6% to 23%), with no metachronous CRC detected in patients with a PMS2 or MSH6 LP/P variant. CONCLUSIONS After index segmental resection, metachronous CRC is less likely to develop in LS patients with MSH6 or PMS2 LP/P variant than in MLH1 or MSH2 carriers. Our data support segmental resection and long-term colonoscopic surveillance rather than total colectomy in carefully selected, well-informed LS patients with MSH6 or PMS2 LP/P variant.

Abstract
Lynch syndrome is a hereditary cancer syndrome caused by germline mutations in one of several DNA mismatch repair genes. Lynch syndrome leads to an increased lifetime risk of various cancers, particularly colorectal, and endometrial cancers. After identifying patients suspected of having Lynch syndrome by clinical criteria, computational prediction models, and/or universal tumor testing, genetic testing is performed to confirm the diagnosis. Before and after genetic testing, genetic counseling should be provided. Genetic counseling should involve a detailed personal and family history, information on the disorder and genetic tests, discussion of the management and surveillance of the disease, career plan, family plan, and psychosocial support. Surveillance of colorectal cancer and other malignancies is of paramount importance for properly managing Lynch syndrome. This review focuses on important considerations in genetic counseling and the latest insights into the surveillance of individuals and families with Lynch syndrome.

Abstract
Lynch syndrome (LS), as a result of the germline mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes, is characterized by the increased risk of endometrium, colon, and urinary tract cancer. Individuals with this disorder may occasionally have multiple primary carcinomas. Regardless of tumor type, pembrolizumab was approved for the treatment of patients with unresectable or metastatic mismatch repair deficient tumors, which may be an optional therapeutic method for patients with LS with multiple primary carcinomas. This case study is of a MSH2-deficient patient with LS with metachronous urothelial and colon cancer, who received pembrolizumab treatment for 8 months. The responses of the two primary sites to immunotherapy differed. Based on the changes of tumor markers and tumor size illustrated by imageological examinations, no response was observed in the sigmoid colon lesion, whereas an immune-associated phenomenon known as pseudoprogression was detected in the ureteral lesion. Immunotherapy was innovatively applied to the patient with multiple primary carcinomas. This case proposes a novel concept in which immunotherapy may potentially control the cancer growth in patients with LS and multiple primary carcinomas. However, further large-scale investigations are required. Furthermore, it raises a challenge to monitor the effectiveness of immunotherapy.

Abstract
Around 5% of colorectal cancers are due to mutations within DNA mismatch repair genes, resulting in Lynch syndrome (LS). These mutations have a high penetrance with early onset of colorectal cancer at a mean age of 45 years. The mainstay of surgical management is either a segmental or extensive colectomy. Currently there is no unified agreement as to which management strategy is superior due to limited conclusive empirical evidence available. A systematic review and meta- analysis to evaluate the risk of metachronous colorectal cancer (MCC) and mortality in LS following segmental and extensive colectomy. A systematic review of the PubMed database was conducted. Studies were included/ excluded based on pre-specified criteria. To assess the risk of MCC and mortality attributed to segmental or extensive colectomies, relative risks (RR) were calculated and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI). Publication bias was investigated using funnel plots. Data about mortality, as well as patient ascertainment [Amsterdam criteria (AC), germline mutation (GM)] were also extracted. Statistical analysis was conducted using the R program (version 3.2.3). The literature search identified 85 studies. After further analysis ten studies were eligible for inclusion in data synthesis. Pooled data identified 1389 patients followed up for a mean of 100.7 months with a mean age of onset of 45.5 years of age. A total 1119 patients underwent segmental colectomies with an absolute risk of MCC in this group of 22.4% at the end of follow-up. The 270 patients who had extensive colectomies had a MCC absolute risk of 4.7% (0% in those with a panproctocolecomy). Segmental colectomy was significantly associated with an increased relative risk of MCC (RR = 5.12; 95% CI 2.88-9.11; Fig. 1), although no significant association with mortality was identified (RR = 1.65; 95% CI 0.90-3.02). There was no statistically significant difference in the risk of MCC between AC and GM cohorts (p = 0.5, Chi-squared test). In LS, segmental colectomy results in a significant increased risk of developing MCC. Despite the choice of segmental or extensive colectomies having no statistically significant impact on mortality, the choice of initial surgical management can impact a patient's requirement for further surgery. An extensive colectomy can result in decreased need for further surgery; reduced hospital stays and associated costs. The significant difference in the risk of MCC, following segmental or extensive colectomies should be discussed with patients when deciding appropriate management. An individualised approach should be utilised, taking into account the patient's age, co-morbidities and genotype. In order to determine likely germline-specific effects, or a difference in survival, larger and more comprehensive studies are required.

Abstract
We hypothesized that endometrial carcinoma (EC) patients with a prior cancer diagnosis, after accounting for EC arising after tamoxifen-treated prior breast carcinoma, are more likely to have an underlying genetic basis. We used information from a population-based study to compare measured risk factors, tumor characteristics, survival, and known mismatch repair (MMR) pathogenic variant status for EC subgroups according to prior diagnosis of cancer (none, breast cancer tamoxifen-treated or not, Lynch Syndrome (LS)-associated cancer). Family history of any cancer was increased for EC cases with prior breast cancer, both tamoxifen treated (P = 0.005) and untreated (P = 0.01). EC cases with prior LS-associated cancer more often reported family history of LS-associated cancer (P = 0.04) and breast cancer (P = 0.05). EC patients with a germline pathogenic MMR gene variant were more likely to report a prior cancer than cases with a MMR proficient tumor (P = 0.0001), but more than half (54.5%) of MMR carriers reported no prior cancer. Women developing EC after tamoxifen treatment for breast cancer were significantly more likely to develop EC of malignant mixed mullerian tumor subtype (13.2% vs 2.6%, P = 1.3 × 10-6 ), present with stage IV disease (8.8% vs 1.2%, P = 1.6 × 10-6 ), and have poorer survival (HRadj 1.96; P = 0.001). While report of prior cancer is an indicator of MMR pathogenic variant status, molecular analysis of all ECs at diagnosis is warranted to detect all patients with LS. Results also indicate the importance of longer-term monitoring of women treated with tamoxifen for symptoms of EC, and the need for studies assessing the biological mechanism underlying the poorer prognosis of this subset of EC patients.

Abstract
Objective Although widely recommended, Lynch syndrome (LS) testing with tumor microsatellite instability (MSI) and/or immunohistochemistry (IHC) is infrequently performed in early-onset colorectal cancer (CRC), and CRC generally. Reasons are poorly understood. Hence, we conducted a national survey focusing on gastroenterologists, as they are frequently first to diagnose CRC, assessing testing barriers and which specialist is felt responsible for ordering MSI/IHC. Additionally, we assessed factors influencing timing of MSI/IHC ordering; testing on colonoscopy biopsy, opposed to post-operative surgical specimens, assists decisions on preoperative germline genetic testing and extent of colonic resection (ECR). Methods A 21-question web-based survey was distributed through an American College of Gastroenterology email listing. Results In total 509 completed the survey. 442 confirmed gastroenterologists were analyzed. Only 33.4% felt gastroenterologists were responsible for MSI/IHC ordering; pathologists were believed most responsible (38.6%). Cost, unfamiliarity interpreting results and unavailable genetic counseling most commonly prevented routine ordering (33.3%, 29.2%, 24.9%, respectively). In multivariable analysis, non-academic and rural settings were associated with cost and genetic counseling barriers. Only 46.1% felt MSI/IHC should always be performed on colonoscopy biopsy. Guideline familiarity predicted whether respondents felt surgical resection should be delayed until results returned given potential effect on ECR decisions. Conclusion Inconsistencies in who is felt should order MSI/IHC may lead to diffusion of responsibility, preventing consistent testing, including preoperatively. Assuring institutional universal testing protocols are in place, with focus on timing of testing, can optimize care. Strategies addressing cost barriers and genomic service availability in rural and non-academic settings can enhance testing. Greater emphasis on guideline familiarity is required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The risk of synchronous and metachronous colorectal cancer is influenced by heritable and environmental factors. As a basis for comparative studies, we provide population-based estimates of synchronous and metachronous colorectal cancer with a focus on non-heritable cases. MATERIAL AND METHODS Based on data from national Danish cancer registers, we estimated the proportion of synchronous colorectal cancer and the incidence rates and risks for metachronous colorectal cancer in 28,504 individuals, who developed 577 metachronous colorectal cancer above age 50. RESULTS Synchronous colorectal cancer was diagnosed in 1.3% of the cases. The risk of metachronous colorectal cancer was associated with sex, tumor location, and age with the strongest influence from the latter. The incidence rate ratios for metachronous colorectal cancer ranged from above 6 in patients below age 65 to <1-3.2 in patients above age 65. The absolute risk of metachronous colorectal cancer was ⩾10% in patients below age 65 and 1.0%-8.0% in patients above age 65. CONCLUSION Individuals who develop sporadic, non-inherited colorectal cancer above age 50 are at a significantly increased risk of metachronous colorectal cancer with risk estimates that are strongly affected by age. This observation underscores the need for development of targeted surveillance in the most common clinical subset of colorectal cancer.

Abstract
Lynch syndrome is the most common hereditary cancer syndrome, the most common cause of heritable colorectal cancer, and the only known heritable cause of endometrial cancer. Other cancers associated with Lynch syndrome include cancers of the ovary, stomach, urothelial tract, and small bowel, and less frequently, cancers of the brain, biliary tract, pancreas, and prostate. The oncogenic tendency of Lynch syndrome stems from a set of genomic alterations of mismatch repair proteins. Defunct mismatch repair proteins cause unusually high instability of regions of the genome called microsatellites. Over time, the accumulation of mutations in microsatellites and elsewhere in the genome can affect the production of important cellular proteins, spurring tumorigenesis. Universal testing of colorectal tumors for microsatellite instability (MSI) is now recommended to (a) prevent cases of Lynch syndrome being missed owing to the use of clinical criteria alone, (b) reduce morbidity and mortality among the relatives of affected individuals, and (c) guide management decisions. Organ-specific cancer risks and associated screening paradigms vary according to the sex of the affected individual and the type of germline DNA alteration causing the MSI. Furthermore, Lynch syndrome-associated cancers have different pathologic, radiologic, and clinical features compared with their sporadic counterparts. Most notably, Lynch syndrome-associated tumors tend to be more indolent than non-Lynch syndrome-associated neoplasms and thus may respond differently to traditional chemotherapy regimens. The high MSI in cases of colorectal cancer reflects a difference in the biologic features of the tumor, possibly with a unique susceptibility to immunotherapy. ©RSNA, 2018.

Abstract
The primary objective of the present study was to compare the choice of colectomy, i.e. total vs. segmental colectomy, in cases of hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC/lynch syndrome), and to assess the efficacy, oncological safety, functional outcome and post-operative complications of total abdominal colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis vs. segmental colectomy in HNPCC. A total of 289 patients who fulfilled the Amsterdam I and II criteria for HNPCC were included in the present study. The criteria for confirmation of the diagnosis were five micro-satellite markers, namely BAT25, BAT26, D2s123, d5S346 and D17S250. Group 1 included those patients who received their diagnosis in the years 2011–2013 and those in group 2 had been diagnosed in the years 2014–2016. The cohort had been subjected to two different types of surgery: i) Standard and extended surgery including total colectomy with ileal pouch anal anastomosis and subtotal colectomy and ii) segmental resection of the colon. Analysis of patient data indicated that in group 1, the extended resection was performed more frequently than in group 2 (68 vs. 34% of cases) and accordingly, segmental resection was less frequent (32 vs. 66%; P<0.001). In conclusion, the extensive rather than the segmental resection has been commonly performed several years ago, but at present, the surgical method of choice in cases of lynch syndrome is segmental resection.

Abstract
Hereditary colorectal cancer accounts for less than 5% of all colorectal cancer cases. Some of the unique characteristics that are commonly encountered in cases of hereditary colorectal cancer include early age at onset, synchronous/metachronous occurrence of the cancer, and association with multiple cancers in other organs, necessitating different management from sporadic colorectal cancer. While the diagnosis of familial adenomatous polyposis might be easy because usually 100 or more adenomas that develop in the colonic mucosa are in this condition, Lynch syndrome, which is the most commonly associated disease with hereditary colorectal cancer, is often missed in daily medical practice because of its relatively poorly defined clinical characteristics. In addition, the disease concept and diagnostic criteria for Lynch syndrome, which was once called hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer, have changed over time with continual research, thereby possibly creating confusion in clinical practice. Under these circumstances, the JSCCR Guideline Committee has developed the "JSCCR Guidelines 2016 for the Clinical Practice of Hereditary Colorectal Cancer (HCRC)," to allow delivery of appropriate medical care in daily practice to patients with familial adenomatous polyposis, Lynch syndrome, or other related diseases. The JSCCR Guidelines 2016 for HCRC were prepared by consensus reached among members of the JSCCR Guideline Committee, based on a careful review of the evidence retrieved from literature searches, and considering the medical health insurance system and actual clinical practice settings in Japan. Herein, we present the English version of the JSCCR Guidelines 2016 for HCRC.

Abstract
The majority of colorectal cancer (CRC) cases are sporadic, with hereditary factors contributing to approximately 35% of CRC cases. Less than 5% of CRC is associated with a known genetic syndrome. Although adenomatous polyposis syndromes, hamartomatous polyposis syndromes, and those previously classified as non-polyposis CRC syndromes are quite rare, it is important for clinicians to know the characteristics of each syndrome and to understand the differences in cancer risks between the different conditions. This information is very important when treatment and surveillance plans are formulated for each individual patient.

Abstract
The field of cancer genetics is rapidly evolving and several genetic mutations have been identified in hereditary cancer syndromes. These mutations can be diagnosed via routine genetic testing allowing prompt intervention. This is especially true for certain variants of colorectal, breast, and thyroid cancers where genetic testing may guide surgical therapy. Ultimately, surgical intervention may drastically diminish disease manifestation or progression in individuals deemed as high-risk based on their genetic makeup. Understanding the concepts of gene-based testing and integrating into current surgical practice is crucial. This review addresses common genetic syndromes, tests, and interventions salient to the current surgeon.

Abstract
AIM Although sporadic colorectal cancer (CRC) usually occurs in patients aged over 50, recent evidence suggests that the incidence is increasing in younger patients. Such patients are theoretically at high risk of metachronous neoplasia and may be candidates for extended prophylactic colectomy. This study aimed to define the risk of metachronous cancer/adenomas during follow-up of younger patients who underwent segmental colectomy for CRC. METHOD A CRC database was used to identify patients aged under 50 who underwent surgery for CRC between 1994 and 2010. Patients diagnosed with hereditary cancer or inflammatory bowel disease were excluded. The primary end-points were frequency of extended resection and the rates of metachronous cancer and high-risk adenomas during follow-up. RESULTS There were 284 young patients with a resectable primary tumour, of whom 280 (98.6%) underwent segmental resection, 3 (1%) extended resection and 1 (0.4%) local resection. Endoscopic follow-up was available for 150 of the patients who had segmental colectomy, with a mean age of 42.6 (±5.8) years at diagnosis and median follow-up time of 68 months (interquartile range 45-105). Out of these 150 patients, 4 (2.7%) developed metachronous colonic adenocarcinoma at 24, 71, 151 and 228 months after index surgery. Thirty additional patients had at least one adenoma identified during surveillance, and three had sessile serrated polyps. Out of the three patients undergoing extended resection, none had metachronous cancer or advanced adenomas at an average follow-up of 17 years. CONCLUSION A segmental colectomy or proctectomy is adequate treatment for patients presenting with CRC under the age of 50.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES To ascertain individual experiences of extended bowel resection as treatment for colorectal cancer (CRC) in those with a high metachronous CRC risk, including the self-reported adequacy of information received at different time points of treatment and recovery.
. RESEARCH APPROACH Qualitative.
. SETTING Participants were recruited through the Australasian Colorectal Cancer Family Registry and two hospitals in Melbourne, Australia.
. PARTICIPANTS 18 individuals with a high metachronous CRC risk who had an extended bowel resection from 6-12 months ago.
. METHODOLOGIC APPROACH Semistructured interviews. Data were analyzed thematically.
. FINDINGS In most cases, the treating surgeon decided on the best option regarding surgical treatment. Participants felt well informed about the surgical procedure. Information related to surgical outcomes, recovery, and lifestyle adjustment from surgery was not always adequate. Many participants described ongoing worry about developing another cancer.
. CONCLUSIONS Patients undergoing an extended resection to reduce metachronous CRC risk require detailed information delivered at more than one time point and relating to several different aspects of the surgical procedure and its outcomes.
. INTERPRETATION An increased emphasis should be given to the provision of patient information on surgical outcomes, recovery, and lifestyle adjustment. Colorectal nurses could provide support for some of the reported unmet needs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Initial surgical procedures for colorectal cancer (CRC) patients with Lynch syndrome remain controversial. This study assessed the validity of segmental colectomy (SGC) followed by endoscopic surveillance as a treatment strategy for CRC patients with Lynch syndrome. METHODS Among consecutive patients who underwent surgery for primary CRC between April 1985 and December 2014, 49 patients were observed to have germline mutations in a mismatch repair gene, and 38 patients who underwent SGC followed by periodic endoscopic surveillance at our institution were evaluated for metachronous CRC, need for secondary surgery, and the details of endoscopic surveillance. RESULTS Of the 38 patients who underwent SGC followed by periodic endoscopic surveillance at our institution, 6 (15.8%) patients showed metachronous CRC, 3 (7.9%) patients underwent endoscopic resection, and the other 3 patients (7.9%) underwent secondary surgery. The dispersion of the endoscopic surveillance interval was significantly greater in patients with metachronous CRC (364 ± 332.9 days) than in those without metachronous CRC (370 ± 129.7 days; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS SGC followed by annual endoscopic surveillance was feasible as a treatment strategy for CRC patients with Lynch syndrome, because the incidence of metachronous CRC and the need for secondary surgery were low. Annual and periodic endoscopic surveillance might be essential for early detection of metachronous CRC and prevention of secondary surgery because of metachronous CRC in CRC patients with Lynch syndrome after SGC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer in Egypt has a higher incidence in young patients compared to western countries, where the disease is more prevalent in the old age group. This difference has been attributed to higher incidence of hereditary cancers in young Egyptian patients. The aim of this study is to compare the family history criteria and pathology features of tumors in young (≤40 years) and old (>40 years) Egyptian patients with adenocarcinoma of the colon and rectum. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is the analysis of our prospectively collected data on the pathology features of tumors in 313 consecutive patients (133 young, 180 old) with colorectal cancer presenting to the Department of Surgery within an eight-year period. A detailed family history was obtained from 258 patients (112 young, 146 old). RESULTS 41 young and 48 old patients reported family history of cancer, the difference was not statistically significant. Ten young patients (9%) reported a family history of colorectal cancer in a first degree relative (3 fitting into Amsterdam criteria, 7 fitting into less strict criteria) which was not significantly different from the old age group. The pathologic features of tumors in both groups resembled sporadic rather than hereditary cancer and there was no significant difference between groups in tumor location, degree of differentiation, mucin production, synchronous and metachronous colorectal tumors or polyps and grossly stricturing or ulcerating tumors. Extracolonic tumors developed in one young and two old patients. CONCLUSION The characteristics of large bowel cancer in young Egyptian patients do not differ significantly from those in older patients. Despite the high incidence of large bowel cancer in young Egyptian patients, family history and pathologic features of tumors do not support a hereditary origin of colorectal cancer in this age group in Egypt.

Abstract
AIM Lynch syndrome (LS) accounts for 2-4% of all colorectal cancer (CRC) cases, and is associated with an increased risk of developing metachronous colorectal cancer (mCRC). The role of extended colectomy in LS CRC is controversial. There are limited studies comparing the risk of mCRC following segmental colectomy and extended colectomy. The objective of this systematic review is to evaluate the risk of developing mCRC following segmental and extended colectomy for LS CRC and endoscopic compliance. METHOD A systematic review of major databases was performed using predefined terms. All original articles published in English comparing the risk of mCRC in LS patients after segmental and extended colectomy from 1950 to January 2016 were included. RESULTS The search retrieved 324 studies. Six studies involving 871 patients met the inclusion criteria. Of these, 705 (80.9%) underwent segmental colectomy and 166 (19.1%) extended colectomy. Average follow-up was 91.2 months. The mCRC rate was 22.8% and 6% in the segmental and extended colectomy groups, respectively. The segmental group were over four times more likely to develop mCRC (OR 4.02, 95% CI: 2.01-8.04, P < 0.0001). mCRC occurred in patients after segmental colectomy despite 1-2-yearly postoperative endoscopic surveillance. CONCLUSION This result suggests that extended colectomy reduces the risk of mCRC by over four-fold compared with segmental colectomy. mCRC occurred in the segmental group despite postoperative endoscopic surveillance. This needs to be borne in mind when deciding on the appropriate surgical management of LS patients with CRC. We recommend that extended colectomy should be considered for patients with confirmed LS CRC.

The current value of determining the mismatch repair status of colorectal cancer: A rationale for routine testing. Crit Rev Oncol Hematol 2017; 116:38-57. [PMID: 28693799 DOI: 10.1016/j.critrevonc.2017.05.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 79] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2016] [Revised: 03/02/2017] [Accepted: 05/15/2017] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is the third most prevalent cancer in men and women. Up to 15% of CRCs display microsatellite instability (MSI). MSI is reflective of a deficient mismatch repair (MMR) system and is most commonly caused by hypermethylation of the MLH1 promoter. However, it may also be due to autosomal dominant constitutional mutations in DNA MMR, termed Lynch Syndrome. MSI may be diagnosed via polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or alternatively, immunohistochemistry (IHC) can identify MMR deficiency (dMMR). Many institutions now advocate universal tumor screening of CRC via either PCR for MSI or IHC for dMMR to guide Lynch Syndrome testing. The association of sporadic MSI with methylation of the MLH1 promoter and an activating BRAF mutation may offer further exclusion criteria for genetic testing. Aside from screening for Lynch syndrome, MMR testing is important because of its prognostic and therapeutic implications. Several studies have shown MSI CRCs exhibit different clinicopathological features and prognosis compared to microsatellite-stable (MSS) CRCs. For example, response to conventional chemotherapy has been reported to be less in MSI tumours. More recently, MSI tumours have been shown to be responsive to immune-checkpoint inhibition providing a novel therapeutic strategy. This provides a rationale for routine testing for MSI or dMMR in CRC.

Screening for mismatch repair deficiency in colorectal cancer: data from three academic medical centers. Cancer Med 2017; 6:1465-1472.

Abstract
Reflex immunohistochemistry (rIHC) for mismatch repair (MMR) protein expression can be used as a screening tool to detect Lynch Syndrome (LS). Increasingly the mismatch repair-deficient (dMMR) phenotype has therapeutic implications. We investigated the pattern and consequence of testing for dMMR in three Irish Cancer Centres (CCs). CRC databases were analyzed from January 2005-December 2013. CC1 performs IHC upon physician request, CC2 implemented rIHC in November 2008, and CC3 has been performing rIHC since 2004. The number of eligible patients referred to clinical genetic services (CGS), and the number of LS patients per center was determined. 3906 patients were included over a 9-year period. dMMR CRCs were found in 32/153 (21%) of patients at CC1 and 55/536 (10%) at CC2, accounting for 3% and 5% of the CRC population, respectively. At CC3, 182/1737 patients (10%) had dMMR CRCs (P < 0.001). Additional testing for the BRAF V600E mutation, was performed in 49 patients at CC3 prior to CGS referral, of which 29 were positive and considered sporadic CRC. Referrals to CGS were made in 66%, 33%, and 30% of eligible patients at CC1, CC2, and CC3, respectively. LS accounted for CRC in eight patients (0.8%) at CC1, eight patients (0.7%) at CC2, and 20 patients (1.2%) at CC3. Cascade testing of patients with dMMR CRC was not completed in 56%. Universal screening increases the detection of dMMR tumors and LS kindreds. Successful implementation of this approach requires adequate resources for appropriate downstream management of these patients.

Abstract
In this article, we propose an association model to estimate the penetrance (risk) of successive cancers in the presence of competing risks. The association between the successive events is modeled via a copula and a proportional hazards model is specified for each competing event. This work is motivated by the analysis of successive cancers for people with Lynch Syndrome in the presence of competing risks. The proposed inference procedure is adapted to handle missing genetic covariates and selection bias, induced by the data collection protocol of the data at hand. The performance of the proposed estimation procedure is evaluated by simulations and its use is illustrated with data from the Colon Cancer Family Registry (Colon CFR).

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to identify personal, lifestyle, and tumor-related risk factors for metachronous colorectal cancer (CRC) and polyp. METHODS Relevant studies were identified by searching MEDLINE, Web of Science and Cochrane Central Register through 15 May 2016. Estimates for associations were summarized using random effects models. RESULTS Fifty-five studies were included in the review. For individuals who had a CRC resection, having a synchronous polyp was a risk factor for metachronous CRC or polyp (relative risk [RR], 2.04; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.48-2.82) and having a synchronous CRC (RR, 1.90; 95% CI, 1.25-2.91) and proximally located CRC (RR, 2.12; 95% CI, 1.24-3.64) were risk factors for metachronous CRC. For individuals who had a polypectomy, larger size (RR, 4.26; 95% CI, 2.11-8.57) or severe dysplasia of the initial polyp (RR, 5.15; 95% CI, 2.02-13.14), and having a synchronous polyp (RR, 2.52; 95% CI, 1.35-4.73) were risk factors for metachronous CRC; and a family history of CRC (RR, 1.90; 95% CI, 1.26-2.87), having a synchronous polyp (RR, 2.47; 95% CI, 1.74-3.50) and a larger size (RR, 1.49; 95% CI, 1.03-2.15) and proximal location of the initial polyp (RR, 1.20; 95% CI, 1.02-1.40) were risk factors for metachronous polyp. Meta-regression showed duration of follow-up was not a source of heterogeneity for most associations. There was no evidence that lifestyle factors were associated with metachronous CRC or polyp risk. CONCLUSION A comprehensive list of risk factors identified for metachronous CRC or polyp may have important clinical implications.
