Overview

According to the Bethesda guidelines and Amsterdam criteria, screening for hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer by genetic testing is recommended among patients with family history or/and a confirmed diagnosis of colorectal cancer under age 50 years.[1][2]

Screening

  • According to the Bethesda guidelines and Amsterdam criteria, screening for hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer by genetic testing is recommended among patients with family history or/and a confirmed diagnosis of colorectal cancer under age 50 years.[1][2]
  • The Amsterdam and Bethesda guidelines are useful for identifying cancer patients who are most likely to be hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal carriers as ideal candidates for genetic testing.
  • Genetic testing for mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes is expensive and time-consuming.
  • Genetic counseling and genetic testing are recommended for families that meet the Amsterdam criteria, preferably before the onset of colon cancer.[3]
  • Microsatellite instability can be observed in the majority of patients with colorectal cancer.
  • Immunohistochemistry and MSI profiling strategy is the most advanced way of identifying candidates for genetic testing for the hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer.
  • The Amsterdam Criteria I and II identify patients for colonoscopic screening and approximately 40-80% of patients meet these criteria.
  • The revised Bethesda criteria are used to identify patients for molecular screening of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer.
  • Approximately 80% of patients are identified using the Bethesda criteria, although the specificity is low.[4][5]

Amsterdam Criteria

The following are the Amsterdam criteria in identifying high-risk candidates for molecular genetic testing:[1]

Amsterdam Criteria I:

  • Three or more family members with a confirmed diagnosis of colorectal cancer, one of whom is a first degree (parent, child, sibling) relative of the other two
  • Two successive affected generations
  • One or more colon cancers diagnosed under age 50 years
  • Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) has been excluded

Amsterdam Criteria II:

  • Three or more family members with HNPCC-related cancers, one of whom is a first degree relative of the other two
  • Two successive affected generations
  • One or more of the HNPCC-related cancers diagnosed under age 50 years
  • Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) has been excluded

Bethesda Guidelines

The Revised Bethesda Guidelines are designed for identifying individuals at risk for hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, and therefore recommend MSI testing.[6]

Revised Bethesda guidelines:

  • Colorectal cancer diagnosed in a patient aged < 50 years
  • Presence of synchronous, metachronous colorectal or other Lynch syndrome‐related tumours, regardless of age
  • With MSI‐H phenotype diagnosed in a patient aged < 60 years
  • Patient with colorectal cancer and a first‐degree relative with a Lynch syndrome‐related tumor, with one of the cancers diagnosed at age <50 years
  • Patient with colorectal cancer with two or more first‐degree or second‐degree relatives with a Lynch syndrome‐related tumor, regardless of age

Surveillance

  • According to Netherlands Surveillance Protocol for Carriers of a MMR-Gene Mutation there is sufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for HNPCC-related cancers.[7][8]
  • Recommended annual screening for patients with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (age 25 onwards or beginning no later than 5 years before the lowest age of onset in family) should include:[8]
  • Physical examination
  • Abdominal ultrasound
  • Full colonoscopy
  • Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (age 35 onwards)
  • Gynecological examination including transvaginal ultrasound
  • Endometrial pipelle biopsy (age 35 onwards)
  • Skin surveillance
  • Urinalysis
