types of diagnostic testing for lynch syndrome
Definition
direct germline DNA testing - looks for rerrangement of mismatch repair genesis, cannot exclude lynch if negative

microsatellite instability testing - done on the tumor, no instability rules out lunch

immunohistochemistry - detects mismatch repair protein gene products, if all 4 proteins present lynch ruled out, done on the tumor tissue. if not ruled out then do promotor testing on MLH1, if MLH1 protein is absent and there is MLH1 promoter methylation lynch is ruled out, if the promoter is absent do germline DNA testing
