Objectives: Mismatch repair (MMR)-deficient (dMMR) colorectal cancer (CRC) have been largely categorized into three subtypes: methylated, Lynch syndrome (LS)-associated, and Lynch-like syndrome (LLS)-associated. No studies have examined the prevalence and subtypes of synchronously diagnosed dMMR CRCs in detail. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the frequency and molecular characteristics of the dMMR status among multiple synchronous CRCs to clarify the clinical significance of identifying patients with such tumors.
