Most adenocarcinomas of the colorectum arise in a visible benign precursor lesion, the adenoma, which is a monoclonal proliferation of dysplastic nonmalignant epithelial cells. The resultant adenoma-adenocarcinoma sequence represents the predominant pathogenetic pathway, in contrast to de novo carci
Carcinomas develop, although at low frequency, in hamartomatous polyps in the Peutz-Jeghers' syndrome. With the identification of at least one of the genes involved (LKB1/STK11), attempts can be made to unravel the molecular events responsible for this hamartoma-adenoma-carcinoma sequence. Recent da
