Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Café-au-lait spots (CALS) are classically found in neurocutaneous syndromes such as neurofibromatosis, but have not been associated with hereditary colorectal cancer. However, review of hereditary colorectal cancer case reports reveals occasional description of CALS on physical exam. METHODS: We describe the colonic and extracolonic phenotype in a family with CALS and early onset colorectal neoplasia...
