Overview
Genes involved in the pathogenesis of familial adenomatous polyposis include APC and MUTYH genes.
Pathophysiology
Pathogenesis


Genetics
- Familial adenomatous polyposis may have different inheritance patterns and genes involved.[1]
- Familial adenomatous polyposis is due to mutations in different genes, including:[2]
- APC gene, which is located on chromosome 5 in band q21 or band q22 (5q21-q22)
- Three hundred mutations of APC gene have been discovered for familial adenomatous polyposis.
- They have premature stop codons and lead to a truncated protein.
- Mutation is seen in 6% of Ashkenazi Jews.
- Mutation is seen in about 28% of those of Ashkenazi descent with a family history of colorectal cancer.
- MUTYH gene, which is located on chromosome 1 between bands p34.2 and p32.1 (1p34.3-p32.1)
- APC gene, which is located on chromosome 5 in band q21 or band q22 (5q21-q22)
- Familial adenomatous polyposis has autosomal dominant inheritance pattern if it results from mutations in the APC gene.
- Familial adenomatous polyposis has autosomal recessive inheritance pattern if it results from mutations in the MUTYH gene.
- mutation is found in
6% of Ashkenazi Jews and in about 28% of those of Ashkenazi descent with a family history of colorectal cancer.
Associated Conditions
Familial adenomatous polyposis is associated with other gastrointestinal and extra intestinal conditions including:[3][4][5]
Gastrointestinal conditions
- Duodenal adenoma
- Stomach cancer
- The risk is approximately 0.5%.
- Periampullary cancer
- The risk is approximately 10%.
- Pancreatic cancer
- The risk is approximately 2%.
- Hepatoblastoma
- The risk is approximately 1.5%.
- Bile duct cancer
Extra intestinal conditions
- Adrenal masses
- Desmoid tumor
- The risk is approximately 10% to 20%.
- It mostly happens in small bowel mesentery.
- Papillary thyroid cancer
- The risk is approximately 2% to 25%.
- Medulloblastoma
- Osteomas
- It is a benign bony growth mainly on jaw
- Congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium

- Epidermoid cysts and fibromas
