Lynch syndrome
Lynch syndrome is a rare hereditary disease. It is due to inherited mutations in an autosomal pattern which means that if one parent is affected, the risk of being self-bearer of the disease is 50%.
Lynch syndrome occurs in families affected by the early onset of certain cancers. These are mainly colorectal cancers but also, among women, endometrial cancer and ovarian cancers.
