Our study revealed several novel somatic variants in the CDH1 gene in Iranian patients with sporadic diffuse GC. Our data supports the hypothesis that mutations in CDH1 gene, and particularly the mutations we describe, should be considered, even in sporadic cases of gastric cancer. The presence of these mutations in patients raises important issues regarding genetic counseling and diagnostic test in DGC patients.
