Abstract excerpt

Peutz-Jeghers' syndrome is an uncommon polyposis syndrome characterized by the presence of hamartomatous polyps in the gastrointestinal tract and mucocutaneous pigmentation (especially in the oral-nasal and perianal areas and hands and feet). Inheritance is autosomal dominant, caused by a germline mutation in the STK11 (LKB1) gene. The risk of breast and gastrointestinal cancer is increased in this syndrome....
