Abstract

The intestinal polyposis syndromes represent a challenging diagnostic problem for the radiologist. These syndromes include: familial multiple polyposis, Gardner's, Peutz-Jeghers, Turcot's, Cronkhite-Canada and juvenile polyposis. The polyposis syndromes can usually be differentiated from one another on the basis of the clinical history, examination of the mucocutaneous tissues and roentgen findings. Numerous other conditions, however, may mimmic a polyposis syndrome, and must be considered in the differential diagnosis.
