โœฆ Synopsis


Abstract

Three cases of familial polyposis coli with adenomatous polyps of the upper gastro-intestinal tract are reported. This association has not previously been described in Britain, probably because no special attempt has been made to detect polyps in these situations.

A careful study of known cases of polyposis coli is required to establish the frequency and fate of associated gastric or small intestinal polyps, with particular reference to the risk of malignant degeneration and the possibility of prophylactic surgical measures.
