It is unfortunate that this video focused solely on colorectal cancer. The Lynch Syndrome was formerly known as Hereditary Non Polyposis Colorectal Cancer in efforts to improve awareness of the wide spectrum of cancers in this syndrome. In fact, recent research indicates that endometrial cancer may be the first presenting cancer in women. In addition, amongst other cancers, ovarian cancer is include in the Lynch Syndrome. Too bad I missed this report from its original date.
