APC is usually associated with inheritance of a faulty gene from a parent. The APC gene is required to stop cells growing too fast: knocking out the other copy of the gene in the body (by chemical damage or random DNA damage) removes this 'brake' and allows lots of little polyps to form in the intestine.
Familial polyposis or familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a premalignant disease. This means that a person with FAP, if left untreated, will invariably develop cancer. Individuals with this disorder grow hundreds of polyps.

No. E-Coli is a bacterium.
Hello, I see you are asking "Is Familial polyposis cancerous" Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an inherited disorder characterized by cancer of the large intestine (colon ) and rectum. People with the classic type of familial adenomatous polyposis may begin to develop multiple noncancerous (benign) growths (polyps ) in the colon as early as their teenage years.

Most patients--more than 85%--who undergo an ileoanal anastomosis are being treated for ulcerative colitis; familial adenomatous polyposis is the next most common condition requiring the surgery.
Yes, there are several forms of familial colon cancer. Several mutations are associated with multiple colon polyps that can be diagnosed with a colonoscopy. This trait is called "Familial adenomatous polyposis". Other mutations are not associated with polyps; the trait is called "hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer".
The only definitive treatment for FAP is surgical removal of the lower intestine. Since the goal is to prevent cancer, the operation is done as soon as adenomatous polyps are found on sigmoidoscopy.
It was first described in 1951 by Eldon Gardner, a college genetics teacher. It is rarely called Gardner's syndrome any more, now being considered merely one type of a genetic condition known as familial adenomatous polyposis.
It is a treatment for a wide spectrum of medical conditions. It is done in congenital anomalies like spina bifida, penetrating wounds like stabs or chop wounds, crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, other IBDs, adenomatous polyposis and carcinoma of bladder, rectum and colon.
It is the over-growth of the endometrium
Hereditary non-polyposis colon cancer
Congested turbinates mean a stuffy nose. Rule out polyposis means make sure the stuffiness isn't caused by bening mucous tumors.
Approximately 100% of people have E. coli inhabiting their colon.E. coli is the primary facultative anaerobe of the human gastrointestinal tract, and colonizes a newborn child within a couple days after birth.
