title: Pancreatic adenocarcinoma in a patient with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome--a case report and literature review.
abstract: A variety of intestinal and extraintestinal neoplasms has been associated with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, although to our knowledge, there has been no reported case of associated pancreatic neoplasm. We report a 38-yr-old man with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome and pancreatic adenocarcinoma and review current literature regarding a neoplastic diathesis in these patients.
