In addition to classic germline APC gene variants, APC mosaicism and deep intronic germline APC variants have also been reported to be causes of adenomatous polyposis. In this study, we investigated 80 unexplained colorectal polyposis patients without germline pathogenic variants in known polyposis predisposing genes to detect mosaic and deep intronic APC variants. All patients developed more than 50 colorectal polyps, with ad...

We report a case of a 22-year-old female patient who was diagnosed with a cribriform-morular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (CMV-PTC). While at early ages this thyroid cancer variant is highly suggestive for familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), there was no family history of FAP. In the tumor biallelic, inactivating APC variants were identified. The patient tested negative for germline variants based on analysis of ge...
