1Family history includes verified cases of cancers and advanced colonic adenomas (villous morphology, size > 10 mm. or high-grade dysplasia) in first- and second-degree relatives. Single cases of basal cell skin cancer are not listed. Family members are separated by semicolons. TA, tubular adenoma; LG, low grade dysplasia; Mat, maternal; Pat., paternal; 2DR/3DR/4DR, second/third/fourth-degree relatives. Carrier status: ? Variant status unknown, + carrier, – non-carrier. IHC, immunohistochemical analysis; n/a, not available.
