    Atypical Lynch and When it's Not Lynch

    Presented by:

    Heather Hampel, MS, LGC - The Ohio State University

    Comprehensive Cancer Center

    JUNE 4: Gynecological Manifestations in Lynch Syndrome

    Webinar Series Overview

    MAY 7: Gastrointestinal Manifestations in Lynch Syndrome

    MARCH 5: Defining Lynch Syndrome

     

    The landscape of lynch Ssyndrome creates challenges for medical professionals. When a diagnosis of lynch syndrome is not obvious, difficulties and confusion arise in diagnosing atypical lynch syndrome cases and knowing with certainty when a patient does not have Lynch. Observing prescribed screening and treatment protocol for gremlin MLH1 methylation, Constitution Mismatch Repair Deficiency (CMMRD), Somatic Mismatch Repair mutations, and CRC Type X translates to a better quality of life and longer life expectancy for CMMRD patients. Providers who stay abreast of these issues are better prepared to deliver a high standard of care in their clinic. 

     

    This webinar will be a source of information for primary care physicians, surgeons, gastroenterologists, genetic counselors, and nurses, and will include education on the following topics:

     

    • Biallelic MMR and CMMRD

    • Germline MLH1 methylation

    • Somatic MMR mutations

    • CRC Type X

     

    Learning Outcomes

     

    At the conclusion of this webinar, medical professionals will be able to:

     

    • Recognize when a patient has ‘Atypical Lynch.”

    • Recognize Biallelic MMR and CMMRD, Germline, MLH1 methylation, Somatic MMR mutations, and CRC Type X.

    • Observe prescribed screening and treatment protocols for the atypical mutations.
