- Abstract
The identification of individuals who should undergo hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) genetic testing remains a critical issue. The Bethesda guidelines were developed to preselect patients for microsatellite instability (MSI) testing before germline mutation screening. These criteria have been revised, and a new set of recommendations, the revised Bethesda guidelines, has been proposed.
