Secondary Manifestations in Lynch Syndrome:
Breast, Prostate, Sebaceous, and
Other Tumors
Presented by:
C. Richard Boland, MD, Baylor Research Institute


The implications of a lynch syndrome diagnosis are far reaching, extending into several organ systems beyond the primary colorectal and gynecological manifestations. Patients are at increased risk of cancer in the stomach, small intestine, liver, gallbladder ducts, upper urinary tract, brain, and skin. Understanding these risks and being proactive is integral to providing proper care to this community
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:
-
Current Status of Breast and Prostate cancer
-
Sebaceous Tumors
-
Urinary tract
-
Gastric/Small Bowel (If not covered in GI)
-
Hepatobiliary
-
Brain/CNS

-
Define surgical options to reduce the risk of breast, prostate, skin, and other cancers.
