|April 1, 1987
Abstract:
A patient with a history of abdominal discomfort and rectal bleeding was discovered to have two hamartomatous polyps, one of the jejunum and one of the colon. The former was associated with mucinous cysts at its base. The findings were similar to those described for colitis cystica profunda. This case is a rare example of cystica profunda disease of the small bowel. Uniquely, it was associated with a hamartomatous polyp.
