摘要
This article considers the case of a 73-year-old white man who presented with synchronous gastric carcinomas and a 20-year history of mixed polyposis. Genetic-testing and molecular-pathology analyses confirmed a diagnosis of Cowden's syndrome. The case explores the diagnostic challenges of differentiating between hamartomatous and adenomatous polyposis syndromes in patients with mixed polyposis, and emphasizes the need to characterize the risk of gastrointestinal cancer in patients with this syndrome.
