Abstract
Peutz-Jeghers syndrome is an autosomal dominant hereditary disease that's characterized by hamartomatous polyps of the gastrointestinal tract and mucocutaneous melanin pigmentation. Hamartomatous polyps can arise anywhere in the gastrointestinal tract, but they are most common in the small intestine. The major symptoms of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome are abdominal pain, intussusception and anemia due to gastrointestinal bleeding, which are all caused by harmatomatous polyp. Capsule endoscopy has been reported to have a higher diagnostic yield than small bowel barium radiography for patients with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome and who have small bowel polyp. Small bowel polyp in patients with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome can be resected by double balloon enteroscopy without laparotomy. We report here on a patient with melena that was caused by small bowel polyps, and this was found by using capsule endoscopy. Polyp in the distal ileum was resected by using colonoscopy and the patient was diagnosed as suffering with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. The other proximal ileum polyp was resected by using double balloon enteroscopy without complication. (Korean J Gastrointest Endosc 2007;35:424-428)
