[A case report of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome in childhood].
The clinical course, diagnosis and treatment of Peutz--Jeghers's syndrome in childhood are discussed and a case reported in a eight-year-old girl. The disease presented with skin and mucosal melanin pigmentation in the mouth, frequent colic-like abdominal pain, due to chronic recurrent invaginations. On operation, the cause of the invaginations appeared to be 11 polypous formations in small intestines (8) and in the large intestines (3), which were subjected to radical operative removal. For an observation period the child had no complaints and was clinically healthy.
