Epidemiological investigations on the frequency of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) syndrome are few and have shown a variable worldwide incidence ranging from 1% to 7% of all colorectal cancers (CRCs). In Italy, relevant differences have been observed: 2.8-3% of all CRCs in northern regions and less than 1% in southern regions. The aim of the present study was to investigate the HNPCC incidence in a selected area of northern Italy belonging to the Lombardy Cancer Registry.
