Abstract:
A 56-yr-old woman with a solitary hamartomatous polyp confined to within the third portion of the duodenum, underwent a successful endoscopic polypectomy. The histological findings were identical to Peutz-Jeghers polyp but all the other clinical features of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome were absent.
