Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome (BHDS) is an inherited tumour syndrome characterised by three major symptoms: lung cysts with spontaneous pneumothorax, fibrofolliculoma and renal cell cancer. The first family with this syndrome was described in 1975 and one of its members presented with adenomatous colon polyps and colorectal cancer. Since then, it has been a matter of debate whether colorectal cancer is...
