Cumulative lifetime incidence of extracolonic cancers in Lynch Syndrome: a eport of 121 families with proven mutations

Cumulative risk for females of an extracolonic tumour is 47.4% (95% CI 43.9-50.8). The risk to males is 26.5% (95% CI 22.6-30.4). There was no reduction in gynaecological malignancies due to gynaecological screening (examination, transvaginal ultrasound scan, hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy).
