Discordant immunohistochemistry in an unusual MLH1 gene variant in a case of Lynch syndrome
Immunohistochemistry for mismatch repair proteins and microsatellite instability testing are recommended screening methods for Lynch syndrome. They have a good sensitivity and specificity, allowing for directed genetic testing and diagnosis. We report a case of Lynch syndrome with retained MMR prote...
