“…Other studies confirmed that the age of CRC onset in carriers of pathogenic variants of the MSH6 and PMS2 genes was delayed by 10 years compared to carriers of MLH1 and MSH2 pathogenic variants [52,53], with very low CRC risk before the age of 30 years [51,52]. Similarly, there was an extremely low risk of developing advanced adenoma (mean number of neoplastic lesions for ages 20 -29 years, 1.3 ± 0.5) or CRC (1 % in 5 years) before the age of 30 for carriers of pathogenic variants of the MLH1 and MSH2 genes [52,53], with very high numbers needed to screen to prevent one CRC death [54]. It is important to take into consideration that, to prevent ascertainment bias, index cases are not included in the retrospective and prospective cohort studies.…”
