Genetic testing is important in families with a history suggestive of hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer even if the Amsterdam criteria are not fulfilled.

The British journal of surgery - 1 Feb 1997

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Clinical screening is still the first-line approach to identification of families with hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC). The need for uniformity of diagnosis of the syndrome, particularly in multicentre studies, led to the establishment of a set of minimum diagnostic...
