| '''Peutz-Jeghers''', also known as '''Hereditary Intestinal Polyposis Syndrome''', is an [[autosomal dominant]] [[genetic disease]] characterized by the development of benign hamartomatous polyps in the gastrointestinal tract.

| ==Diagnosis==
| | {{SK}} Hereditary intestinal polyposis syndrome, PJS, polyps and spots syndrome, polyposis, hamartomatous intestinal polyposis. |
| The three main criteria for diagnosis are:
| |
| * [[Family history (medicine)|Family history]]
| |
| * [[Mucocutaneous boundary|Mucocutaneous lesions]] causing patches of hyperpigmentation in the mouth and on the hands and feet. The oral pigmentations are the first on the body to appear, and thus play an important part in early diagnosis. Intraorally, they are most frequently seen on the gingiva, hard palate and inside of the cheek. The [[mucosa]] of the lower lip is almost invariably involved as well.
| |
| * [[Polyp (medicine)|Hamartomatous polyps]] in the gastrointestinal tract. These are benign polyps with a extraordinarily low potential for malignancy.
| |
|
| |
|
| Having 2 of the 3 listed criteria indicates a positive diagnosis. The oral findings are consistent with other conditions, such as [[Addison's disease]] and [[McCune-Albright syndrome]], and these should be included in the [[differential diagnosis]]. Definitive diagnosis requires a histological sample of a polyp.

| ==Genetics== | | ==[[Peutz-Jeghers syndrome historical perspective|Historical Perspective]]== |
| In 1998, a gene was found to be associated with the mutation. On [[Chromosome 19 (human)|chromosome 19]], the gene known as ''[[STK11]]'' (''LKB1'')<ref>{{cite web |url=http://us.expasy.org/cgi-bin/niceprot.pl?Q15831 |title=UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot entry Q15831 [STK11_HUMAN] Serine/threonine-protein kinase 11 |accessdate=2007-07-21 |format= |work=}}</ref> is a possible [[tumor suppressor gene]]. It is inherited in an ''Autosomal Dominant'' pattern (see [[Mendelian inheritance]]) which means that anyone who has PJS has a 50% chance of passing it onto their children.

| The risks associated with this syndrome include a strong tendency of developing cancer in multiple sites<ref>{{cite journal |author=Boardman LA, Thibodeau SN, Schaid DJ, ''et al'' |title=Increased risk for cancer in patients with the Peutz-Jeghers syndrome |journal=Ann. Intern. Med. |volume=128 |issue=11 |pages=896–9 |year=1998 |pmid=9634427 |doi=}}</ref>. While the harmartomatous polyps themselves do not have malignant potential, patients with the syndrome have an increased risk of developing carcinomas of the pancreas, liver, lungs, breast, ovaries, uterus and testicles.

| The average age of first diagnosis is 23, but the lesions can be identified at birth by an astute pediatrician. Prior to puberty, the mucocutaneous lesions can be found on the palms and soles. Often the first presentation is as a bowel obstruction from an [[intussusception]] which is a common cause of mortality; an intussusception is a telescoping of one loop of bowel into another segment.

|
| Most of the data regarding this disorder are from selected family lines and thus the risks endured by those families regarding outcomes may not translate completely to the patient without a familial history.

| ==Prognosis== | | ==[[Peutz-Jeghers syndrome epidemiology and demographics|Epidemiology and Demographics]]== |
| Almost half of Peutz-Jeghers patients die from cancer by age 57 years, and the cumulative risk of developing a form of cancer associated with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome between ages 15-64 is 93%.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.emedicine.com/med/topic1807.htm |title=eMedicine - Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome : Article by Andrea Duchini, MD |accessdate=2007-07-21 |format= |work=}}</ref>

| ==Screening== | | ==[[Peutz-Jeghers syndrome risk factors|Risk Factors]]== |
| Screening includes [[Esophagogastroduodenoscopy|upper GI endoscopy]], [[enteroclysis]], and [[colonoscopy]] to check for the locations of the hamartomas. To check for cancerous lesions, [[endoscopic ultrasound]], testicular ultrasound and imaging studies of the liver and the pancreas are indicated because of the risk of pancreatic cancer as well as gallbladder polyps and cancer. These imaging studies may include ultrasonography as well as CT with pancreatic details or magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP).
| |
|
| |
|
| In addition, an annual physical examination that includes evaluation of the breasts, abdomen, pelvis, and testes should be done by a physician. An annual complete blood count to check for anemia should be done. If bleeding is found, removal of hemorrhagic or large polyps (>5 mm) by endoscopic polypectomy should be performed.
| | ==[[Peutz-Jeghers syndrome screening|Screening]]== |
|
| |
|
| Some suggestions for surveillance for cancer include the following:
| | ==[[Peutz-Jeghers syndrome natural history, complications, and prognosis|Natural History, Complications and Prognosis]]== |
| Small intestine with small bowel radiography every 2 years,
| |
| Esophagogastroduodenoscopy and colonoscopy every 2 years,
| |
| Ultrasound of the pancreas yearly,
| |
| Ultrasound of the pelvis (women) and testes (men) yearly,
| |
| Mammography (women) at ages 25, 30, 35, and 38 years, then every 2 years until age 50 years, then annually, and
| |
| Papanicolaou (Pap) test every year
| |
|
| |
|
| Follow-up care should be supervised by a gastroenterologist familiar with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. Genetic consultation and counseling as well as urological and gynecological consultations are required in the management of these patients.
