Abstract:
The report presents two families with inherited predisposition to colorectal carcinoma without preexisting polyposis coli. In these families the disease is characterized by early onset and tumor localization in the right side colon. Screening colonoscopy should be started early. Families of this kind are of greatest value for genetic marker studies.
