Invitae | RCV001031810 | SCV001195116 | pathogenic | Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms | 2019-04-11 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is a gross deletion of the genomic region encompassing exons 1-3 of the MSH2 gene, which includes the initiator codon. If EPCAM has been tested and no copy number events are reported for it, then the 5' boundary of this event lies between the EPCAM and MSH2 genes. If EPCAM has not been tested, the 5' end of this event is unknown as it extends beyond the assayed region of this test. Similar deletions have been observed in several individuals affected with Lynch syndrome and colorectal cancer (PMID: 17250661, 19250818, 19930554, 12373605, 24244552). Loss-of-function variants in MSH2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15849733, 24362816). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
