Peutz–Jeghers syndrome: A case report and discussion of surveillance recommendations

Peutz–Jeghers syndrome is a rare condition characterised by mucocutaneous pigmentation, polyposis and an increased cancer risk at a number of gastrointestinal and extra intestinal organs. We look at the typical appearances of the gastrointestinal features on conventional barium follow-through, magnetic resonance (MR) enterography and multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT). We discuss the current recommendations for surveillance in this patient group.
