- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>To identify the SPS causative gene using exome sequencing technique in<br /><br>well-characterized SPS patients and families. </p><br>
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>• To give an overview of polyposis and SPS patients identified in a<br /><br>retrospective PALGA search in a tertiary medical centre over 27 years<br /><br>• To distinguish different subtypes in phenotypes of patients with serrated and<br /><br>mixed polyposis<br /><br>• To confirm the possible genes in additional SPS families, SPS singletons and<br /><br>exclude it in healthy controls.<br /><br>• To study the effect of the mutation on protein level<br /><br>• To elucidate the genetic mechanism underlying the serrated carcinoma pathway<br /><br>and molecular etiology in SPS<br /><br>• To identify patients at increased risk for colorectal carcinoma and family<br /><br>members at increased risk for polyposis or CRC</p><br>
