Introduction: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the most common cancer worldwide and occurs in two forms: sporadic and hereditary. Within the hereditary forms, two types are identified, polyposis and non-polyposis. The latter includes Lynch syndrome (LS) and familial colorectal cancer type X (FCFX). The aim of our study was to evaluate whether there is an association between clinicopathological and genetic characteristics and hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer in the Peruvian population. Methods: Clinical histories from the Genetics Service of the Edgardo Rebagliati Martins National Hospital were reviewed. Data were recorded in a data collection form. The information was processed with the statistical programme "STATA version 16" using absolute and relative frequency tables for categorical variables. Results: 73 patients were selected to be included in the analysis, 64 were diagnosed with SL and 9 with CCFTX. The majority were older than 40 years (69.84%) and female sex (58.90%) was the most representative. With respect to the presence of multiple tumours, temporality and presence of extra-colonic cancer in relation to hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer, there was a relationship. Conclusion: It is concluded that, although the results could not be contrasted with those of other studies with a larger sample size, they are considered important and significant. Examples include the correlation between the presence of multiple tumours and MMR gene mutations, which in our study was statistically significant, suggesting that these should be targeted for further study.
