Abstract

Peutz-Jeghers syndrome is an autosomal dominant inherited disorder which is characterized by mucocutaneus melanocytic macules and intestinal hamartomatous polypus. The aim of our work is to underline the role of pigmented changes in the diagnostic process. Numerous lentigines should always lead to multiorgan investigations.
