Juvenile polyposis syndrome (JPS) is a non-cancerous benign growth predominant in a young population with an estimated incidence of one in 1, 00,000 to 1, 60,000 per year. It is a rare genetic presentation, which can occur sporadically as well. There is a 39% evident risk of developing colorectal carcinoma. Herein, we present an unusual case of a 13-year-old girl from a rural area with a negative family history of juvenile polyposis, who had complaints of rectal prolapse and rectal bleeding which were more pronounced after defecation. Her contrast computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a distended large bowel studded with multiple juvenile polyps throughout, the largest of which was detected on the mid rectum. Colo-colic intussusception was also found due to a large polyp at the hepatic flexure, inferiorly extending up to ascending colon and caecum. Pan proctocolectomy with ileoanal J pouch anastomosis was performed, bearing in mind the risk for colorectal cancer and her general state of health.
青少年息肉病综合征(JPS)是一种非癌性良性病变,主要发生于年轻人群,估计年发病率为十万分之一至十六万分之一。它是一种罕见的遗传性疾病,也可散发出现。患结直肠癌的风险明显为39%。在此,我们报告一例不同寻常的病例,一名来自农村地区的13岁女孩,其家族中无青少年息肉病病史,她主诉有直肠脱垂和直肠出血,排便后症状更为明显。她的增强计算机断层扫描(CT)显示大肠扩张,布满多个青少年息肉,其中最大的息肉位于直肠中部。还发现由于肝曲处有一个大息肉导致结肠结肠套叠,息肉向下延伸至升结肠和盲肠。考虑到患结直肠癌的风险以及她的总体健康状况,实施了全直肠结肠切除术并进行回肠肛管J袋吻合术。
