Follow‐up and Surgical Management of Peutz‐Jeghers Syndrome in Children

Abstract: Children with PJS have a high risk of numerous laparotomies due to polyps' complications. Therefore, a screening of intestinal polyposis by videocapsule endoscopy is recommended, as well as a screening of the most frequent sites of cancers for the patient's whole life. During any abdominal procedure, they should have an intraoperative endoscopy, this management allowing an increased time interval between 2 laparotomies.
