Genomic insights into familial adenomatous polyposis: unraveling a rare case with whole APC gene deletion and intellectual disability

Abstract A young patient diagnosed with advanced colon cancer and liver metastasis was found to have familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) through comprehensive genomic analysis. Whole-genome array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) revealed germline deletions at chromosome 5q22.1-22.2 encompas...
