Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the occurrence of metachronous colorectal cancer in patients diagnosed with early-onset colorectal cancer (under 50 years old), finding an overall incidence of 2.6%.
- - It highlights that patients with Lynch syndrome have a significantly higher incidence of metachronous colorectal cancer at 18.43%, while those with a family history have a rate of 10.52%.
- - The findings suggest that although early-onset colorectal cancer patients have a similar risk as older patients, specific genetic and familial factors significantly increase their risk, indicating the need for personalized management strategies.
Solitary hamartomatous polyps with identical pathological features of the typical hamartomas of the Peutz-Jegher syndrome are extremely rare.
