Epitope-positive truncating MLH1 mutation and loss of PMS2: implications for IHC-directed genetic testing for lynch syndrome

We assessed mismatch repair by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and microsatellite instability (MSI) analysis in an early onset endometrial cancer and a sister’s colon cancer. We demonstrated high-level MSI and normal expression for MLH1, MSH2 and MSH6. PMS2 failed to stain in both tumors, strongly implic...
