Abstract excerpt
In addition to classic germline APC gene variants, APC mosaicism and deep intronic germline APC variants have also been reported to be causes of adenomatous polyposis. In this study, we investigated 80 unexplained colorectal polyposis patients without germline pathogenic variants in known polyposis predisposing genes to detect mosaic and deep intronic APC variants. All patients developed more than 50 colorectal...
