چکیده

BACKGROUND Hereditary non polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) appears to have a better prognosis than sporadic cancer. In the present study we evaluated the clinical outcomes of HNPCC patients with their sporadic colorectal cancer counterparts arising from the general population recorded in a population-based cancer registry in Iran. PATIENTS AND METHODS The population studied consisted of 121 individuals including 61 patients with sporadic colorectal cancer and 60 with HNPCC who were followed-up between 2003 and 2008 in Taleghani Hospital Tehran. The subjects with HNPCC were screened according to Amsterdam criteria II and Bethesda Guidelines. Subjects with sporadic cancer had no familial history of colorectal cancer. Observed survival was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared with the log rank test. Multivariate analysis was performed using Cox' regression analysis. RESULTS In the HNPCC group, 85.0% showed tumors in the colon, vs. 68.9% in the sporadic cancer group. The 5-year survival was 82.5% in the HNPCC study group compared with only 56.4% in the sporadic colorectal cancer group (P= 0.044). The age distribution at diagnosis of sporadic patients was significantly higher than HNPCC patients (mean 50.1 years vs 44.3 years P= 0.008). The hazard ratio for sporadic cases was 2.93 (95% CI 1.06-8.11) compared with the HNPCC group (P= 0.038). CONCLUSION Our findings corroborate the results of previous studies which showed overall survival of colorectal cancer in patients with HNPCC is better than with sporadic CRC patients.

Survival of hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer patients compared with sporadic colorectal cancer patients

BACKGROUND Patients with hereditary non-poliposys colorectal cancer (HNPCC) have better prognosis than sporadic colorectal cancer (CRC). Aim of our retrospective study was to compare the overall survival between sporadic CRC and HNPCC patients. METHODS We analyzed a cohort of 40 (25 males and 15 females) HNPCC cases with a hospital consecutive series of 573 (312 males and 261 females) sporadi...

Molecular Analysis of Microsatellite Instability in Hereditary Non Polyposis Colon Carcinoma Patients from North-East Iran

  Background and Objectives: Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) is an autosomal dominant cancer predisposition syndrome caused by germ-line mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes. Tumors arising as a result of these mutations display instability in a sequence area known as microsatellites. Studies have shown that some Bethesda markers (BAT25, BAT26) are more efficient than other...
