Solitary Peutz-Jeghers Type Polyp- A Rare Presentation

Abstract

solitary Peutz-Jeghers type is a hamartomatous polyp without associated mucocutaneous pigmentation or a family history of Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome. Peutz-Jeghers type hamartomatous polyps are associated with a lower risk of cancer and are regarded as a different disorder as compared to peutz-jeghers syndrome. We described a case of 27-year-old young man who had complaint of abdominal pain. Clinically diagnosed as intussusception with large polyp, suspicious of malignancy but histopathological examination revealed PJ type hamartomatous polyp with foci of mild dysplastic changes.
