Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The goal of this review is to help providers recognize, diagnose and manage gastrointestinal (GI) polyposis syndromes. RECENT FINDINGS: Intestinal polyps include a number of histological sub-types such as adenomas, serrated, hamartomas among others. Over a quarter of individuals undergoing screening colonoscopy are expected to have colonic adenomas. Although it is not uncommon for adults to have a few GI polyps in their lifetime, some individuals are found to have multiple polyps of varying histology throughout the GI tract. In these individuals, depending on polyp histology, number, location and size as well as extra-intestinal features and/or family history, a polyposis syndrome should be considered with appropriate testing and management. SUMMARY: Diagnosis and management of polyposis syndromes has evolved with advent of multigene panel testing and new data on optimal surveillance strategies. Evidence-based recommendations and current practice guidelines for polyposis syndromes are reviewed here. Areas of uncertainty and future research are also highlighted.
