Gastric polyps are frequently encountered on endoscopic examinations. While many of these represent true epithelial lesions, some of the polyps may result from underlying stromal or lymphoid proliferations or even heterotopic tissue. Histologic examination is essential for accurate typing of the polyps to predict malignant potential and underlying possible genetic abnormalities. The focus of th...
cronkhite-canada syndrome (ccs) is a rare, non-familial disorder of unknown etiology associated with alopecia, cutaneous hyperpigmentation, gastrointestinal polyposis, onychodystrophy, diarrhea, weight loss and abdominal pain.the prevalence ofâ gastrointestinal malignancy in ccs patients is about 13%, and especially is high in colorectal and gastric areas; 5 year mortality rate is 55%. in this ...
Patients with the Peutz-Jeghers syndrome carry a slight, though definite, increased risk of gastrointestinal carcinoma.The malignant potentiality of Peutz-Jeghers hamartomatous polyps, generally considered benign, is supported by this report. Two cases of metastasising gastrointestinal carcinoma associated with the Peutz-Jeghers syndrome are described in a 56 year old female and her 29 year old...
BACKGROUND Patients with hamartomatous polyposis syndromes have increased risk for colorectal cancer (CRC). Although progression of polyps to carcinoma is observed, pathogenic mechanisms remain unknown. The authors examined whether familial hamartomatous polyps harbor defects in DNA mismatch repair (MMR), and assayed for somatic mutation of PTEN, a gene inactivated in the germline of some hamar...
A 42-year-old female diagnosed with tuberous sclerosis was found to have multiple polyps in the fundus of stomach. On histologic examination, the lesions were hamartomatous polyps. In tuberous sclerosis, many lesions occur in multiple organs and there are several reports about the frequent association of hamartomatous polyps of the colon. However, gastric manifestation of tuberous sclerosis has...
Most hamartomatous polyps in the stomach occur in patients with adenomatous polyposis coli and dysplasia. The authors report a case of a 57-year-old man without prior history of polyposis coli who presented with adenocarcinomas derived from hamartomatous polyps in the stomach. The patient underwent a radical subtotal gastrectomy with Billroth I anastomosis. Pathology revealed adenocarcinomas wi...
INTRODUCTION A hamartomatous polyp without associated mucocutaneous pigmentation or a family history of Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome is diagnosed as a solitary Peutz-Jeghers type hamartomatous polyp. As compared with Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome, Peutz-Jeghers type hamartomatous polyps are diagnosed with a lower risk of cancer and are regarded as a different disorder. CASE PRESENTATION In case one, we de...
The hamartomatous polyps in Peutz-Jeghers syndrome may have malignant potential. To differentiate between hamartomatous and adenomas polyps, vascular characterization can be assessed using noninvasive procedures, such as contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). The neo-angiogenic characteristics of colorectal adenomas and carcinomas are expressed as an anarchic vascular pattern observed on CEUS. Us...
peutz–jeghers syndrome is a rare condition characterized by mucocutaneous pigmentation, polyposis and an increased cancer risk at a number of gastrointestinal and extra intestinal organs. we present a patient with a history of gastrointestinal bleeding with no mucocutaneous pigmentation. upper and lower gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed multiple polyps located in the deuodenum and colon. hist...
Germline mutations in LKB1 cause the rare cancer prone disorder Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS). Gastrointestinal hamartomatous polyps constitute the major phenotypic trait in PJS. Hamartomatous polyps arising in PJS patients are generally considered to lack premalignant potential although rare neoplastic changes in these polyps and an increased gastrointestinal cancer risk in PJS are well documen...
