Did you know that endometrial cancer can sometimes be hereditary?
Lynch syndrome is the most common inherited cause of endometrial carcinoma and is caused by mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes. In many women, endometrial cancer may be the first warning sign before colorectal cancer appears.
In this video, we explain:
• What is Lynch syndrome?
• Which genes are involved (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2)
• Why young women with endometrial cancer should be evaluated
• Lifetime cancer risks
• Red flag clinical features
• Screening and genetic testing
• Risk-reducing hysterectomy after childbearing
This lecture is designed for:
✔ MBBS students
✔ FCPS / MS / MD residents
✔ MRCOG aspirants
✔ Gynecology trainees
✔ Oncology learners
Early identification of hereditary cancer syndromes can save lives — not only for the patient but also for her family.
