| Core Tip |
Individuals with hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) are at increased risk of both colorectal cancer and other cancers. When they have a comorbid inflammatory condition (CID) that requires immunosuppression, clinicians may be hesitant to prescribe these medications due to concern of an elevated cancer risk. We show that individuals with HNPCC and CID have a similar cancer risk to those with HNPCC alone, and that the addition of immunosuppression does not increase overall cancer risk, but may increase the risk of LS-specific cancers. |
