In this case report we describe a patient with a
confirmed diagnosis of Peutz-Jegher syndrome.
A diagnosis made from a positive tissue sample
from the small bowels and characteristic
hyperpigmentation on the patient’s lips. This
particular patient wasn’t diagnosed till he got
intussusception which required an operation.
There’s a possibility that the diagnosis could
have been made earlier in the patient’s life
because of the hyperpigmented macules on his
lips in addition to frequent abdominal pain.
