Frequency and Features of Duodenal Adenomas in Patients With MUTYH-Associated Polyposis

In a data analysis from 92 patients with MAP, duodenal polyposis seemed to develop less frequently than in patients with FAP, and developed at a later age. Increasing lesion size and villous change appear to promote adenoma progression, rather than polyp number or dysplasia. It may be time to consider a new staging system for patients with MAP, to better determine disease severity and surveillance strategies.
