Abstract excerpt
Germline mutations in the Mutant-Y-homologue (MYH) gene have been linked to an attenuated form of familial adenomatous polyposis in patients who express a wild-type adenomatous polyposis coli gene. However, the diverse clinical manifestations of MYH mutations have not been fully elucidated. We report a case of siblings with identical germline mutations in the MYH gene, one of whom developed a locally advanced...
