چکیده
Mortality from colorectal cancer can be reduced by early diagnosis and by cancer prevention through polypectomy.

In addition, the guidelines provide recommendations for the management of patients with high-risk colorectal cancer syndromes, including Lynch syndrome. Screening approaches for Lynch syndrome are also described.
