abstract: A systematic review of gynecological cancer surveillance in women belonging to Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer (Lynch syndrome) fa

Conclusions.
Currently available published studies on gynecological cancer surveillance in women with HNPCC do not adequately allow for evidence-based clinical decisions. Detection of endometrial cancer or hyperplasia in nonsymptomatic women belonging to a HNPCC family is improved by adding routine endometrial sampling along with transvaginal ultrasound for surveillance visits. No benefit was shown for ovarian cancer surveillance.
