## Background: An accumulation of mutations can result in carcinogenesis. comparing genetic alterations in preneoplastic lesions with those seen in cancer in the same patient may be helpful in the early diagnosis of lung carcinoma or preneoplastic lesions. ## Methods: To identify genetic alterati

## BACKGROUND. The majority of colorectal carcinomas, if not all, arise from a benign adenoma. The DNA of the carcinomatous cells frequently has mutations in several genes. However, it is not exactly clear when during the neoplastic process each mutation develops. An adenoma with an area of in sit
