Abstract

A case study is presented of a 57-year-old male who showed typical clinical features of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome. Numerous polypoid lesions were found in the stomach, duodenum, ileum, colon and rectum accompanied with characteristic ectodermal changes. Tests indicated a protein-losing gastroenteropathy. Intestinal lactase deficiency was demonstrated by the lactose tolerance test. Scanning electronmicroscopy of the gastric and colonic mucosa revealed prominent secretion of mucoid substances and distortion in the gastric pits and colonic crypts. These abnormal findings were interpreted as having a direct relationship to the loss of protein into the gastrointestinal tract.
