The pathologist, Dr Cuthbert Dukes, and the surgeon, Mr JP Lockhart-Mummery, noted that patients had a family history of bowel cancer and could have hundreds of colonic polyps. They, with the help of HRJ Bussey, set up the Polyposis Registry. The registry collected information about these patients and the families from 1918 to 1954. They found that patients developed polyps in childhood, the risk of affected children was 50%, and cancer took 15 years to develop from first diagnosis. This was clearly a familial disease.
