2021-04-23

Abstract excerpt

Juvenile polyposis syndrome (JPS) is a rare genetic disorder due to germline mutations in BMPR1A or in SMAD4 that are both tumor suppressor genes. The main clinical manifestation is the presence of multiple hamartomatous polyps preferentially located in gastrointestinal tract, mostly in colorectal site.
