- Bover 65
- C50-60 years
- D30-40 years

3Hereditary Non-Polyposis Colorectal Cancer (HNPCC) is a hereditary malignant syndrome which leaves the individual highly susceptible to other forms of cancer.
HNPCC is also known as [blank_start]Lynch[blank_end] Syndrome- ALynch
4Lynch Syndrome, as well as predisposing the individual to colorectal cancer (HNPCC), also leaves the individual at high risk of which three of the following cancers?
- AEndometrial cancer
- BBreast cancer
- COvarian cancer
- DVulval cancer
- ELung cancer
- FOesophageal cancer
5Which two of the following are Type I Endometrial Carcinomas?
- AEndometrioid
- BSerous
- CClear Cell
- DMucinous
6Which two of the following are Type II Endometrial Carcinomas?
- AEndometrioid
- BMucinous
- CSerous
- DClear Cell
7[blank_start]Type I[blank_end] Endometrial Carcinomas are associated with unopposed Oestrogen and atypical hyperplasia
[blank_start]Type II[blank_end] Endometrial Carcinomas are associated with TP53 mutation- AType II
- BType I
8A serous endometrial carcinoma is associated with unopposed oestrogen
- ATrue
- BFalse
9Atypical hyperplasia is a precursor to clear cell endometrial carcinoma
- ATrue
- BFalse
10The precursor to endometrioid carcinoma is atypical hyperplasia.
- ATrue
- BFalse
11Mucinous Endometrial Carcinomas are associated with TP53 mutation
- ATrue
- BFalse
12Mucinous Endometrial Carcinomas are associated with unopposed oestrogen.
- ATrue
- BFalse
13Which of the following are associated with Microsatellite Instability?
- AEndometrioid Endometrial Carcinoma
- BMucinous Endometrial Carcinoma
- CSerous Endometrial Carcinoma
- DClear Cell Endometrial Carcinoma
14Which condition is defined as the following?
"Germline mutation of DNA mismatch repair genes"
[blank_start]Lynch Syndrome[blank_end]- ALynch Syndrome
15Obesity is a highly substantial risk factor for endometrial carcinoma
- ATrue
- BFalse
16Obesity is a risk factor for endometrial carcinoma as fat cells called adipocytes express an enzyme called [blank_start]aromatase[blank_end] which converts ovarian androgens into oestrogens, thus promoting endometrial proliferation.
- Aaromatase
17Lynch Syndrome has an autosomal [blank_start]dominant[blank_end] inheritance pattern
- Adominant
18One of the characteristic traits of Lynch Syndrome is a lack of Microsatellite Instability
- ATrue
- BFalse
19Type II Endometrial Carcinomas (Serous and Clear Cell) are more aggressive than Type I cancers as they spread along the fallopian tube mucosa allowing extrauterine presentation.
- ATrue
- BFalse
20Which of the following Type II Endometrial Carcinomas is known to spread to the peritoneum early in the disease process?
- ASerous Endometrial Carcinoma
- BClear Cell Endometrial Carcinoma
21Endometrioid carcinoma has good prognosis as it is usually confined to the uterus at presentation
- ATrue
- BFalse
22Uterine Leiomyomas are also called Uterine [blank_start]Fibroids[blank_end]
- AFibroids
