Peutz-Jeghers polyp, abbreviated PJP, is an uncommon hamartomous gastrointestinal polyp. It is usually associated with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome.

General

Epidemiology

Features:[1][2]

Clinical

Features:[3]

  • Melanocytic macules.
    • Lips, buccal mucosa, and digits.
    • Multiple Peutz-Jeghers polyps.

Increased risk of various neoplasms - primarily:

Microscopic

Features:[1][2]

  • Frond-like polyp with all three components of mucosa:
    1. Muscosal epithelium (melanotic mucosa, goblet cells).
    2. Lamina propria.
    3. M. mucosae.

Notes:

  • Frond = leaflike expansion.[6]
    • The key is "thick" smooth muscle bundles - if one is lucky one sees branching.[7]
      • "Thick" ~= thickness of muscularis mucosae.

DDx:

IHC

  • Chromogranin A - increased staining in relation to background; increased enterochromaffin cells.[8]
