2+ of the following: - Multiple facial trichilemmomas - Multiple oral papules - Acral keratoses
59
Peutz-Jaghers vs Gardner Syndrome: Which develops which type of polyp?
Peutz-Jaghers: Hamartomatous polyps in the jejunum and ileum, but patients are at 10-18x greater risk for general GI, breast, GU, and pancreatic caner VS Gardner Syndrome: adenomatous polyps (FAP from APC gene mutation) in COLON 100% turn to cancer
