Germline mutations in the tumor-suppresor APC gene are associated with hereditary familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and somatic mutations are common in sporadic colorectal cancer. In this study, we report the identification of three novel germline mutations: 1682-1683insA, 3252-3253insAT, 3544A>T
## Abstract Chromosomal region 18q21 is frequently deleted in colorectal cancer (CRC) and is associated with poor prognosis.
