Abstract

Juvenile polyposis syndrome (JPS) is an autosomal dominant disease that is characterized by multiple hamartomatous polyps. Patients with JPS are at increased risk for developing colorectal and gastric cancer. JPS was diagnosed by endoscopy and histology, and the patient underwent surgery, total proctocolectomy and ileal pouch-anal anastomosis.
