• Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) is a disorder that increases the chances of cancer particularly colon and the rectum. This disorder is also called Lynch syndrome.
• People with lynch syndrome often have noncancerous growth (polyps) in the colon, called colon cancer.

Clinical Symptoms

• This is an asymptomatic disease and it is advisable to get a cancer screening test if you have a history of cancer in the family.
• People with a history of Lynch syndrome in the family have a high-risk probability of developing cancers of the stomach, small intestine, liver and other vital organs.

Genetic Changes

• Usually, screening is performed if an abnormal tissue or cancer is found early. However, this is not the case in most scenarios. Genetic testing will help patrons to access risks and monitor ahealth condition.
• The morbidity of colorectal cancer is significantly high.
• Family health history & age contribute to the risks of developing colorectal cancer.
• Colon cancer screening looks for MLH1, MSH2, MSH, PMS2 or EPCAM genes.
• However,APC or MYH gene screening is recommended for only certain ethnicities.

Advantages of Cancer Screening using Genetic Testing

• Individuals can estimate the chance of developing cancer during their lifetime
• Risk prediction of a particular disease
• Forecast can help change lifestyle by implementing preventive measures
• Cancer risks can be mitigated early by regular cancer screening
• Genetic counseling before & after can help in future prognosis

Is cancer hereditary, things you must consider?

• Do you have 3 or more relatives on the same side of the family who have suffered same or related forms of cancer?
• Do you have 2 or more relatives diagnosed with cancer at an early age?
• Do you have a recurring history of 2 or more cancers in the family bloodline?
• If I have a genetic condition, can I lower my risks?

Why Us?

• We provide comprehensive analysis of all 24 chromosomal disorders
• Highly trained & qualified technicians
• We use robust & proven Next generation sequencing (NGS) protocol
• Quality control for every batch
• Guaranteed results & lower chances of false positives

Things to Remember

• Genetic testing helps in making a predictive health forecast
• Many people suffer from depression, anxiety or guilt after the test. We recommend genetic counseling to prevent such emotional implications
• The results only describe the risk for a particular disease
• It doesnot say that you have the disease
• Regardless of the mutation only a few people develop the disease
• Out of 100 people who take genetic screen, there is a significant chance that only 25 might develop cancer
