Clinical Challenges Associated with Universal Screening for Lynch Syndrome–Associated Endometrial Cancer

14 Dec 2016

Abstract excerpt

Universal testing for Lynch syndrome is now a routine component of the diagnostic work-up of endometrial cancer patients. The purpose of this study was to identify prospectively the barriers to universal screening based on a tissue testing approach [microsatellite instability (MSI) analysis, IHC for DNA mismatch repair proteins, and MLH1 methylation analysis]. Endometrial carcinoma patients (n = 213)...
