Progress report: Peutz-Jeghers syndrome.
Familial Cancer 2024 March 17
Peutz-Jeghers syndrome is a rare, autosomal dominant polyposis syndrome. Presenting with a remarkable phenotype including development of characteristic gastrointestinal polyps, mucocutaneous pigmentations, and an increased risk of cancer, the syndrome has been subject to many studies concerning the natural course of disease. In most patients, pathogenic germline variants are detected in the STK11 gene including cases of mosaicism and structural variants. Yet, studies assessing the effect of surveillance, understanding of cancer development, as well as clinical studies evaluating chemoprevention are lacking. In addition, the impact of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome on mental health, education, and family planning are insufficiently addressed. In this progress report, we describe current knowledge, clinical phenotype, surveillance strategies, and future areas of research.
