Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Molecular genetic diagnoses are critical to prevention and treatment of inherited polyposis and colorectal cancer. 19 genes responsible for these conditions are known, but many severely affected patients and families remain unsolved. Cryptic intronic variants that alter splicing of these genes and incomplete characterisation of recessive predisposition contribute to these diagnostic gaps. METHODS:...
