Objective To evaluate the risk of urothelial cancer in the upper urinary tract and the bladder, determine the contribution from the different mismatch-repair genes, and define clinical characteristics of urothelial cancer in Lynch syndrome. Materials and Methods The national hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer registry was used to identify all 288 Lynch syndrome families in Denmark. Urothelial cancers that developed in mutation carriers and in their first-degree relatives were identified, mismatch-repair status was assessed, clinicopathologic variables were defined, and cumulative lifetime risks were determined. Results In total, 48 cancers of the ureter, 34 cancers of the renal pelvis, and 54 urinary bladder cancers developed at a mean age of 61 (24-89) years. The tumors were typically of high grade, showed loss of mismatch-repair protein expression in 90% of the tumors and microsatellite instability in 23% of the tumors. Mutations in MSH2 were overrepresented (73%), and MSH2 mutation carriers were at a significantly increased risk of developing urinary tract cancer compared with individuals with mutations in MLH1 or MSH6. Conclusion Cancers of the upper urinary tract and the urinary bladder are included in the Lynch syndrome tumor spectrum. Urothelial cancers are predominantly linked to MSH2 mutations, which suggest that surveillance should be targeted at individuals with mutations herein.
