A Case of Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome Presenting With an Inoperable Periampullary Tumor

Recurrent Ileo-ileal Intussusception Caused by Inflammatory Fibroid Polyp: A Rare Case Report

An inflammatory fibroid polyp is a rare benign lesion of the gastrointestinal tract, which can cause obstruction or intussusception when it reaches a large diameter. We present a case of a 46-year-old female admitted to our clinic with recurrent ileus attacks. We performed segmental resection of the small bowel due to a 3-cm pedunculated polypoid lesion located in the terminal ileum that caused ileo-ileal intussusception and whose pathology was reported as an inflammatory fibroid polyp. In adults presenting with ileus, the possibility of intussusception should be kept in mind.

Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome Presenting With Anemia: A Case Report

Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) is a rare autosomal dominant condition characterized by hamartomatous polyps, primarily in the gastrointestinal tract and mucocutaneous pigmented macules. PJS patients are at an increased lifetime risk of malignancies and complications, such as gastrointestinal bleeding from polyposis. Routine screening is critical in patients diagnosed with PJS in order to avoid complications. We report a case of a 30-year-old female with PJS who had no family history presenting acutely due to gastrointestinal bleeding and poor surveillance of her condition.
