The laboratory findings associated with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer are mainly related with the evaluation of genetic mutations; such as the germline testing for a deleterious mutation in the MMR (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2) or EPCAM gene. Other laboratory findings include: GCBC, FOBT, serum CEA, CA 19-9 concentration and CA 125, serum iron concentrations, serum vitamin B12 and folate concentrations, liver function tests, and pulmonary function tests. | |||

Overview
The laboratory findings associated with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer are mainly related with the evaluation of genetic mutations; such as the germline testing for a deleterious mutation in the MMR (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2) or EPCAM gene. Other laboratory findings include: GCBC, FOBT, serum CEA, CA 19-9 concentration and CA 125, serum iron concentrations, serum vitamin B12 and folate concentrations, liver function tests, and pulmonary function tests.
