Because of small intestinal obstruction, she received the small intestinal polypectomy in 2001, and the pathological diagnosis was Peutz-Jeghers polyp canceration (mucinous adenocarcinoma, infiltrating full-thickness of the intestine). The patient did not feel uncomfortable after 6 mo of chemotherapy and other management. We kept a follow-up study on her and found that she suffered from cervical cancer in 2007, with a pathological diagnosis of cervical adenosquamous carcinoma.The patient presented with typical features of PJS, but without a family history. The PJS accompanied with both small intestinal and cervical malignancies has not been reported so far in the world.展开更多

Computed tomography and gastrointestinal imaging combined with endoscopy helped evaluate the depth of tumor infiltration and determine the need for radical resection. Three patients underwent surgery. Postoperative pathology confirmed adenocarcinoma, genetic test indicated STK11 mutation,and the patients received chemotherapy, including one who succumbed to tumor progression 6 months post-surgery. Other two patients underwent endoscopic resection, and postoperative pathology confirmed high grade intraepithelial neoplasia. The surviving patients had no recurrence by May 2018.CONCLUSION Endoscopy combined with computed tomography and gastrointestinal imaging is of great significance in the diagnosis and treatment of PJS, and pathological examination and gene detection are the gold standards for detecting malignant changes secondary to PJS. Some malignant polyps can be removed under endoscopy, and surgery is feasible when malignant polyps cannot be remove dunder an endoscope. For patients unable to achieve R0 resection, clinical symptoms should be relieved, and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy could improve long-term prognosis. Meanwhile, close and regular surveillance should be conducted to prevent severe complications.展开更多
