PurposeUniversal screening for Lynch syndrome (LS) on resected colorectal carcinomas (CRCs) and endometrial carcinomas (ECs) was implemented in Iceland in 2017 using immunohistochemistry (IHC) for mismatch repair (MMR) proteins. We examined the efficacy of the universal screening algorithm to detect LS and the diagnostic accuracy of MMR IHC by comparing results with a population-based genotype database.MethodsAll patients diagnosed with CRC or EC per the Icelandic Cancer Registry from 2017 to 2019 who had tumor MMR IHC performed were included. Pathology reports and patient charts were reviewed. MMR IHC stains were crossmatched with genotyping results obtained from the deCODE database.ResultsIHC staining was done on 404 patients with CRC and 74 patients with EC. A total of 61 (15.1%) patients with CRC and 15 (20.3%) patients with EC were MMR-deficient. MMR IHC had 88.9% sensitivity in identifying patients with LS and a positive predictive value of 10.7%. Only 50% of individuals were appropriately referred for genetic testing, leading to underdiagnosis of LS.ConclusionUniversal screening for LS using MMR protein IHC in CRC and EC accurately identified patients appropriate for genetic testing in a population with MSH6 and PMS2 LS predominance. Because of lack of referral to genetic counseling, only 50% of patients with LS were identified through the screening algorithm.  相似文献

This multicenter study evaluated the mutation spectrum and frequencies of the MLH1 and MSH2 genes and determined the occurrence of large genomic deletions in 93 unrelated Taiwanese families that fulfilled the Amsterdam criteria II by denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography analysis, DNA sequencing for aberrant chromatograms, and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification analysis. In total, 38 pathogenic mutations (10 large deletions and 28 point mutations or small deletion/insertions) in the MSH2 or MLH1 gene were identified in 61 of the 93 families (66%). Three of the 10 large deletions and 14 of the 28 point mutations or small insertions/deletions have not been reported elsewhere. Three mutations in the MLH1 gene, the MLH1 c.1846_1848delAAG (5 families), deletion exons 11–15 (4 unrelated families), and MLH1 c.793C>T (13 unrelated families), accounted for 35% of all cases with pathogenic mutations. Haplotype analysis indicated that mutant c.793C>T alleles were derived from two distinct common founders that might be inherited from a single ancestor of presumably Chinese origin. As a mutation detection strategy for Taiwanese Lynch syndrome patients, we recommend that diagnosis starts with screening for large genomic deletions and continues by screening for common mutations in exons 10 and 16 of the MLH1 gene prior to searching for small mutations in the remaining exons.  相似文献
