Cancer Alliance Planning Guidance for 2023/24 is to ensure Lynch Syndrome testing is in place for all newly diagnosed colorectal and endometrial cancers and to ensure that all patients who are identified as likely to have Lynch Syndrome are referred for specialised genetic testing in line with NICE guidelines DG27 and DG42.

The Molecular Pathology department is part of the West Kent and Medway Cellular Pathology Service and performs MMR testing on Histology specimens. The results of this inform clinical colleagues of patients who potentially have Lynch Syndrome and require further genetic referral.
