Prevalence and genetic spectrum associated with hereditary colorectal cancer syndromes, the need to improve cancer risk awareness, and family cascade testing in Vietnam.

Abstract excerpt

In Vietnam, colorectal cancer is one of the top diagnosed cancers, with 5-10% originating from inherited mutations. This study aims to define the mutation spectrum associated with hereditary colorectal cancer syndromes (HCCS) in Vietnam, evaluate the influence of genetic testing on carriers' awareness, and also investigate the barriers in familial testing. Genetic test reports were collected to identify HCCS...
