Phenotypes associated with the disease colorectal cancer, susceptibility to, 12 (OMIM:615083):
- Carcinoma (HP:0030731): A malignant tumor arising from epithelial cells. Carcinomas that arise from glandular epithelium are called adenocarcinomas, those that arise from squamous epithelium are called squamous cell carcinomas, and those that arise from transitional epithelium are called transitional cell carcinomas (NCI Thesaurus). Evidence: IEA. (OMIM:615083)
- Adult onset (HP:0003581): Onset of disease manifestations in adulthood, defined here as at the age of 16 years or later. Evidence: TAS. (OMIM:615083)
- Autosomal dominant inheritance (HP:0000006): A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in heterozygotes. In the context of medical genetics, an autosomal dominant disorder is caused when a single copy of the mutant allele is present. Males and females are affected equally, and can both transmit the disorder with a risk of 50% for each child of inheriting the mutant allele. Evidence: TAS. (OMIM:615083)
- Colorectal polyposis (HP:0200063): Multiple abnormal growths that arise from the lining of the large intestine (colon or rectum) and protrude into the intestinal lumen. Evidence: TAS. (OMIM:615083)
