BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer (CRC), one of the most important causes of morbidity and mortality, has earned the attention of healthcare systems widely. Screening programs are designed to detect patients at risk as effectively as possible. One of the major CRC risk factors is having a family member with diagnosed CRC. AIM To investigate the association between presence of polyps on colonoscopy...
Attenuated familial adenomatous polyposis (AFAP) is a variant of familial adenomatous polyposis with fewer than one hundred colorectal polyps and a later age of onset of the cancer. Here, we report two cases of AFAP within family members. Each patient demonstrated the same novel germ line mutation in exon 15 of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene and was successfully managed with sulindac...
We describe 2 extended kindreds supposedly manifesting familial multiple adenomatous polyposis coli (FPC), but which show marked heterogeneity in the phenotypic expression of colorectal adenomatous polyps. In one family, 2 individuals had diffuse polyposis at very early ages (7 and 10 years), while 6 others (aged 23 to 72 years) had solitary polyps only. Of the patients with solitary polyps, 2 ...
Background: Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by a mutation in the coli (APC) gene. FAP characterized development of multiple polyps (>100) colon. The aim this study was to evaluate prevalence gastroduodenal patients referred Taleghani hospital, teaching referral center Tehran, Iran. Materials and Methods: Front-view side-view endoscopies were perf...
Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a rare syndrome characterized by the presence of hundreds to thousands of colorectal adenomas and is responsible for less than 1% of all colorectal cancers. The syndrome is also characterized by extra-colorectal features including amongst others upper gastrointestinal tract polyps and desmoid tumors. The syndrome is inherited by an autosomal dominant gene...
Familial adenomatous polyposis is characterized by over 100 colorectal adenomas in the colorectum. The disease equally affects both sexes, with an incidence estimated at 1.14025-1.8300. The disease is premature in people with familial adenomatous polyposis. Patients suffering from familial adenomatous polyposis have a range of extra-intestinal diseases such as papillae, gastric, small intestine...
The penetrance for colon polyps is close to 100% and bi-allelic MUTYH mutation carriers generally develop 10-100’s adenomatous polyps/adenomas of the colon and the rectum. Approximately one third of patients also develop polyps/adenomas in the upper gastrointestinal tract. Other manifestations frequently seen in Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) are also present in minority of MAP patients: ...
BACKGROUND Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) is an autosomal dominant genetic disease. It severely decreases patient quality of life and leads elevated cancer risk. Germline mutation of LKB1 is the leading cause of familial PJS. MATERIAL AND METHODS To characterize the germline mutation of LKB1 gene in Chinese familial and sporadic PJS patients, 14 PJS families, 5 sporadic PJS patients, and 250 heal...
Membrane arachidonic acid is converted by cyclooxygenase (COX) into prostaglandin (PG) G(2) and then to PGH(2) which is subsequently metabolized to PGE(2) by PGE synthase (PGES). Both COX-1 and COX-2 play critical roles in intestinal polyp formation, whereas COX-2 is also expressed in cancers of a variety of organs. Likewise, inducible microsomal PGES (mPGES-1) is expressed in several types of ...
