Abstract
Lynch syndrome (LS) is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder that results in an increased risk of ovarian and endometrial cancers. The aim of this paper was to explore the management of this risk through screening and prevention. Published materials and evidence were explored and summarized. This paper demonstrated that while there has been increased awareness and advances in the identification and diagnosis of patients with LS, recommendations for screening and prevention remain less evidence-based. In decisions of management of patients with LS, a shared decision-making model should be used considering individual patient goals.
