. . . . . . . "[Lynch syndrome displays many curious features that cannot be accounted for by the prevailing concepts of carcinogenesis and genetics: (1) CRCs occur preferentially in the right side of the colon, whereas the majority of sporadic cases develop in the left colon; (2) the increased risk of CRC is not associated with an increased incidence of adenomatous polyps, which are necessary precancerous lesions in the development of common CRCs; (3) the tumor spectrum in Lynch syndrome is restricted to the colon and some extracolonic sites, whereas the responsible MMR genes are ubiquitously expressed; (4) the tumor risk, which is negligible during childhood, becomes significant during adulthood at the age of 25 and thereafter remains essentially constant throughout the ages.].
