Juvenile polyposis syndrome, abbreviated JPS, is an autosomal dominant inherited condition due to a mutation in SMAD4[1] or BMPR1A.[2]

General

It is characterized by (hamartomatous) juvenile polyps.

Individuals with JPS have an increased risk of gastrointestinal cancer. Classically, individuals with JPS get colorectal carcinoma.[3]

Note:

Criteria for Dx of JPS

One of the following:[3]

  1. Five juvenile polyps in the colorectum.
  2. "Multiple" juvenile polyps through-out GI tract.
  3. Juvenile polyp + family history of JPS.

Note:

  • "Multiple" is not defined.
