[Intestinal polyp of infrequent localization: presentation of 2 cases]. 1984

J M García Crespo, and F Martín Pinto, and J Domínguez Vallejo

Although intestinal polyposis it is quite a frequently clinical picture, there are some cases that deserve an special comment. The first infant was 50 days old and had an hamartomatous polyp implanted in jejunum. The second case was a five years old girl with a juvenile polyp implanted in the appendix's base. Authors describe clinical presentation, symtomatology and diagnostic steps taken in these patients with special emphasis in pathological study. Both were surgically treated and with satisfactory results.
