| Abstract | To characterize the frequency of germline mutations associated with Lynch syndrome and review the potential expanded differential diagnoses in very early onset colorectal cancer (CRC) cases without apparent polyposis. Retrospectively reviewed medical records of 96 probands with CRC diagnosed prior to age 36 from three cancer centers. Determined the frequency of germline mutations in probands meeting different clinical criteria used to identify Lynch syndrome. Three of 46 (6.5%) single case indicators (probands without additional personal or family history suspicious for Lynch syndrome) were identified to carry a deleterious or suspected deleterious mismatch repair (MMR) mutation compared with 10 of 19 (52.6%) in the cases meeting at least one additional revised Bethesda guideline, and 11 of 15 (73.3%) in the cases meeting Amsterdam criteria. Two families without MMR mutations were documented to have a germline APC or TP53 mutation after additional clinical features were identified. Our results suggest that single cases of CRC (those without additional personal or family history suspicious of Lynch syndrome) diagnosed prior to age 36 infrequently have identifiable MMR mutations, especially when compared to cases meeting additional criteria. Careful attention to evolving or additional clinical features is warranted and may lead to an alternate genetic diagnosis in families with early onset CRC. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
