Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The mutational spectrum of mismatch repair (MMR) genes in the Baltic States has been reported to be quite similar to that in Poland; however during a country-wide study considerable differences in the population of Latvia were discovered. This study was undertaken to investigate the clinical and molecular features of HNPCC in Latvia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Family cancer histories were collected, from...
