Q

Where are the adenomas in FAP? what do you do for these pts?

A

most are in the colon, can be anywhere and require a prophylactic colectomy bc 100% cance of developing colon adenocarcinoma

Age of onset of CRC

A

Age of onset: median = 16 years, range from 5-38 w/ increasing # detected with age. Cancer at late 30s

Q

What is the age of onset for adenoma in Lynch compared to other syndromes?

A

Adenomas occur earlier then normal but in low #s::: Colonic carcinoma IG occurs in mulitples, not ass. w/ adenomas

Q

Features of Lynch:

accelerated carcinogeneis (adenoma—> carcioma) in _____ yrs vs 8-10

see____ CRC pts have Lynch syndrome, risk for second primary cancer is 16% in 10 yrs

Q

How do first degree relatives of Lynch patients do?

A

risk for new cancer in first/second degree relative = 35-45% by age 70 but better survival rate bc most are associated with increased inflammation thus boosts host immune response to cancer

Q

Describe key histology in Lynch syndrome

A

Mucinous features and chronic inflammation with signet ring features

18
Q

What are my MMR or mismatch repair genes?

A

MSH1 and MSH2 recognize and fix shit

PMS2 and MSH6

19
Q

MSH2/MSH6 will:

A

identify the mismatch

20
Q

MSH1/PMS2 will

A

fix the mismatch

21
Q

*see loss of MMR funtion sporadic (___%) or hereditary (__%) leading to accumulation of mutations

22
Q

Staining is:

MLH1: +

PMS2: +

MSH2: +

MSH6: +

A

likely sporadic cancer

23
Q

Staining is:

MLH1: -

PMS2: -

MSH2: +

MSH6: +

A

LS or sporadic

MLH1 mucation or MLH1 hyperpigmentation

24
Q

Staining is:

MLH1: +

PMS2: +

MSH2: -

MSH6: -

A

Mutation is likely LS:

MSH2 mutation

25
Staining is: MLH1: + PMS2: + MSH2: + MSH6: -
26
Staining is: MLH1: + PMS2: - MSH2: + MSH6: +
Likely LS with PMS2 mutuation
27
= repeat DNA throughout genome and IG non-coding segments
Microsatallites
28
mutations in MMR protein—\> accumulation of mutation in genome; some are in critical genes an can initiate cancer.
microsatelitte instability
29
DNA replication enZ will ‘slip’ frequently on repeat sequences (microsatellites) and\_\_\_ fixes the ‘slips’… NO\_\_\_\_ : end up with see mutated microsatellites that change in length and act as surrogate marker for\_\_\_ function
MMR
30
Understand how to read microsatelitte instability
note the left shift = instability in microsatellite means may be instabilityin MMR gene
31
MSI-L = microsatalite instability-LOW means see 1 maker for MSI= more likely\_\_\_\_ ## Footnote
sporadic
32
MSI-H = microsatallite instability-HIGH see at least 2 markers show MSI =
more likely inherited
33
When do we give adjuvant chemo: in MSI-L or MSI-H patients?
In pts with MSI-Low!!!
34
BRAF has never been reported in pt with\_\_\_\_\_ syndrome but we see 68% of sporadic MSI CRC (non-lynch) do have BRAF mutation.
Lynch
35
BRAF is useful in diagnosing:
MSI-H and loss of MLH-1 IHC seen in colorectoal cancer
36
Most common frequenct of Micro-Sat-Instability phenotype in CRC
MSS/ MSI-L while 13% are sporadic: MSI-H
37
What does anal canal carcionma with basaloid differentiation look like on histology
sheets of basal cells
38
What do Squamos cell carcinomal of anal canal look like on histology?
irregular nuclei, squamous looking glands
39
most common cancer of appendix?
Carcinoid = most common (20-39 yrs)—\> secretes bioactive compounds ## Footnote
40
obstructed appendix w/ insipissate mucin; not a true tumor
Mucocele:
41
Mucinous cystadenoma/cystadenocarcinoma:
mucus secreating epitheial tumor
42
Psuedomyxoma peritonei=
jelly belly, very gelatinous looking
