Oncogenetische testen voor familiale adenomateuze polyposePublished by: KCELast published: 2014Dépistage oncogénétique de la polypose adénomateuse familialePublished by: KCELast published: 2014

Patients should undergo an annual examination, including a medical review and endoscopic screening and surveillance. The care team may include a medical geneticist, a gastroenterologist, an advanced endoscopist, a gastrointestinal surgeon, and a colorectal surgeon.

Geneticists should discuss familial genetic testing with patients; this should be offered to at-risk family members of patients diagnosed with familial adenomatous polyposis where a pathogenic variant has been identified.[28]​​
