Gardner Syndrome
A variant of ADENOMATOUS POLYPOSIS COLI caused by mutation in the APC gene (GENES, APC) on CHROMOSOME 5. It is characterized by not only the presence of multiple colonic polyposis but also extracolonic ADENOMATOUS POLYPS in the UPPER GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT; the EYE; the SKIN; the SKULL; and the FACIAL BONES; as well as malignancy in organs other than the GI tract.
Osteoma
Sarcoma Viruses, Feline
Species of GAMMARETROVIRUS isolated from fibrosarcoma in cats. The viruses are actually recombinant feline leukemia viruses (FeLV) where part of the genome has been replaced by cellular oncogenes. It is unique to individuals and not transmitted naturally to other cats. FeSVs are replication defective and require FeLV to reproduce.
Gardner's syndrome - a case report. (1/34)
Gardner's syndrome is the association of multiple colonic polyps (familial adenomatous polyposis coli - FAP) with sebaceous cysts and jaw osteomas. The significance of this dominantly inherited condition to the dentist is that the colonic polyps usually undergo malignant change by the fourth decade and the extra-intestinal lesions may be apparent before those in the bowel. As such, early detection of multiple jaw osteomas and/or multiple sebaceous cysts (particularly on the scalp) may lead to appropriate further investigation and treatment which might be life saving. Diagnosis of this condition also has implications for other family members. (+info)Treatment of desmoid tumours in Gardner's syndrome. (2/34)
A 24 year old woman with Gardner's syndrome developed a massive chest wall desmoid tumour, which required radical excision and prosthetic reconstruction. In view of the local aggressiveness of this tumour and the fact that it does not metastasize a policy of radical surgery when possible is recommended. (+info)Peripheral osteoma of the maxillofacial region. Diagnosis and management: a study of 14 cases. (3/34)
PURPOSE: The purpose of the article was to present 14 new cases of peripheral osteoma and to evaluate the diagnosis and management of peripheral osteoma of the maxillofacial region with an analysis of the literature. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The records of 14 consecutive patients (6 males and 8 females) referred for the management of peripheral osteoma the maxillofacial region were reviewed. Demographic data, location, presenting symptoms, radiographic findings, bone scan, colonoscopy results and surgical management were analyzed. The criteria used to diagnose peripheral osteoma included radiographic and histologic features. RESULTS: The 14 patients, ranged in age from 13 to 79 years with a mean age of 40.5 years. The lesions were located in the mandible (64%), maxilla (7%), temporal bone (22%) and maxillary sinus (7%). Colonoscopy results performed in 10 subjects were negative. Surgical excision was the treatment of choice with good results. There were no complications or recurrences. CONCLUSIONS: Peripheral osteoma of the jaw bones is uncommon. The post surgical follow-up should include periodic clinical and radiographic studies. Patients with osteoma associated with impacted or supernumerary teeth, should be evaluated for the possible Gardner's syndrome. (+info)Gardner's syndrome: a case report and review of the literature.

Gardner's syndrome is an autosomal dominant disease characterized by the presence of colonic polyposis, osteomas and a multitude of soft tissue tumors. The syndrome may present at any age from 2 mo to 70 years with a variety of symptoms, either colonic or extracolonic. We present a case of a 11-year-old female patient with Gardner's syndrome who presented with a lumbar area desmoid tumor and treated with resection of the desmoid, restorative proctocolectomy and ileal pouch anal anastomosis, A review of the current literature has been performed. (+info)Hereditary familial polyposis and Gardner's syndrome: contribution of the odonto-stomatology examination in its diagnosis and a case description. (5/34)
Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) and its phenotype variant, Gardner's syndrome, constitute a rare autosomal dominant inherited disorder. They are characterised by the development, generally during the second and third decades of life, of multiple adenomatous polyps in the colon and rectum. These polyps have a high risk of subsequently becoming malignant, which normally occurs in the third and fourth decades of life. The phenotypical features of FAP can be very variable. As well as colorectal polyps, these individuals can present with extra-colonic symptoms, among which are particularly: gastro-duodenal polyps, dermoid and epidermoid cysts, desmoid tumours, congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium, disorders of the maxillary and skeletal bones and dental anomalies. In this paper the most important aspects of this syndrome are reviewed, showing an example based on a well documented clinical case. The importance of odonto-stomatological examinations should be pointed out, among others, as a means of reaching a presumptive diagnosis, whose confirmation is vital to the patient. (+info)The UK Northern region genetic register for familial adenomatous polyposis coli: use of age of onset, congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium, and DNA markers in risk calculations. (6/34)
A polyposis register has been established in the Northern Region of England. A total of 48 families with 71 living affected subjects has been identified during the first three years of operation, a prevalence of 2.29 x 10(-5). Indirect ophthalmoscopy identifies the majority of gene carriers by showing multiple areas of congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium (CHRPE). The absence of this sign in families limits its value where a relative with CHRPE has not been identified. Combining eye examination with data on age of onset and linked DNA markers is highly effective in carrier exclusion; 38% of 528 first, second, and third degree relatives had their carrier risk reduced to less than 1 in 1000. Even with such assurance many subjects will request continued bowel screening at a reduced frequency. Little interest has been shown in prenatal diagnosis. The principal value of a genetic register with domiciliary nurse visiting is the reduction in early mortality among unrecognised gene carriers.

Segments of ileum are used as conduits following ureteral resection and for bladder augmentation to achieve adequate bladder capacity. We herein report the use of a segment of transplanted ileum for this purpose in a patient with Gardner's syndrome who underwent multivisceral transplantation. To our knowledge this is the first such case report. (+info)Gardner's syndrome: genetic testing and colonoscopy are indicated in adolescents and young adults with cranial osteomas: a case report. (8/34)
We present a case of a 25-year-old female with diagnosed familial adenomatous polyposis and elevated carcinoembryonic antigen with negative family history. The suspicion of Gardner's syndrome was raised because extirpation of an osteoma of the left temporo-occipital region was made 10 years ago. Restorative procto-colectomy and ileal pouch anal anastomosis was made but histology delineated adenocarcinoma of the rectum (Dukes C stage). We conclude that cranial osteomas often precede gastrointestinal manifestations of familial adenomatous polyposis or Gardner's syndrome and such patients should be evaluated with genetic testing followed by colonoscopy if results are positive to prevent the development of colorectal carcinoma. If the diagnosis is positive all family members should be evaluated for familial adenomatous polyposis. (+info)Gardner Syndrome is a rare, inherited condition characterized by the development of multiple benign growths (colonic polyps) and an increased risk of colorectal cancer, along with various types of tumors outside the colon, such as osteomas, dental abnormalities, and epidermoid cysts.
Gardner Syndrome is a rare inherited condition associated with a mutation in the APC gene, which also causes Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP). This syndrome is characterized by the development of multiple benign tumors called adenomas in the colon and rectum. Additionally, individuals with Gardner Syndrome often develop various types of non-cancerous growths outside the gastrointestinal tract, such as osteomas (benign bone tumors), dental abnormalities, and epidermoid cysts on the skin.
Individuals with this syndrome have an increased risk of developing colorectal cancer at a young age, typically before 40 years old, if not monitored and treated appropriately. Other cancers that may develop in association with Gardner Syndrome include duodenal cancer, thyroid cancer, brain tumors (particularly cerebellar medulloblastomas), and adrenal gland tumors.
Regular surveillance through colonoscopies and other diagnostic tests is crucial for early detection and management of potential malignancies in individuals with Gardner Syndrome.
"Skin manifestations refer to visible alterations of the skin's appearance, texture, or color that can indicate various internal diseases, disorders, or reactions to external factors."
Skin manifestations refer to visible changes on the skin that can indicate an underlying medical condition or disease process. These changes can include rashes, lesions, discoloration, eruptions, blisters, hives, and other abnormalities. The appearance, distribution, and pattern of these manifestations can provide important clues for healthcare professionals to diagnose and manage the underlying condition.
Skin manifestations can be caused by a wide range of factors, including infections, inflammatory conditions, allergic reactions, genetic disorders, autoimmune diseases, and cancer. In some cases, skin manifestations may be the primary symptom of a medical condition, while in other cases, they may be a secondary effect of medication or treatment.
It is important to note that while skin manifestations can provide valuable diagnostic information, they should always be evaluated in the context of the patient's overall medical history and presentation. A thorough physical examination and appropriate diagnostic tests are often necessary to confirm a diagnosis and develop an effective treatment plan.
Osteoma is a benign osteogenic tumor characterized by the slow growth of well-differentiated compact or cancellous bone, often found on the skull or long bones, and typically presenting as an asymptomatic, slow-growing mass.
Osteoma is a benign (noncancerous) tumor that is made up of mature bone tissue. It usually grows slowly over a period of years and is most commonly found in the skull or jaw, although it can occur in other bones of the body as well. Osteomas are typically small, but they can grow to be several centimeters in size. They may cause symptoms if they press on nearby tissues or structures, such as nerves or blood vessels. In some cases, osteomas may not cause any symptoms and may only be discovered during routine imaging studies. Treatment for osteoma is typically not necessary unless it is causing problems or growing rapidly. If treatment is needed, it may involve surgical removal of the tumor.
Sarcoma viruses, feline, refer to a group of retroviruses that can induce the development of sarcomas and other tumors in cats, including the feline leukemia virus (FeLV) and the feline sarcoma virus (FeSV), which are often transmitted through close contact with infected felines or via shared food and water sources.
Sarcoma viruses in cats, also known as feline sarcoma viruses (FeSVs), are a group of retroviruses that can cause tumors and other diseases in felines. There are two main types of FeSVs: the feline leukemia virus (FeLV)-related sarcoma viruses and the independent feline sarcoma viruses.
The FeLV-related sarcoma viruses are formed when a cat is infected with FeLV, and the FeLV genome integrates into the host's DNA in such a way that it becomes rearranged and acquires new oncogenic properties. These rearranged FeLV proviruses can then cause various types of tumors, including fibrosarcomas, lymphosarcomas, and leukemias.
The independent feline sarcoma viruses, on the other hand, are not associated with FeLV infection. They contain their own unique oncogenes that can induce the formation of fibrosarcomas, a type of soft tissue cancer. These viruses are typically transmitted through direct contact with an infected cat or its saliva and can cause rapidly growing tumors at the site of inoculation.
It is important to note that not all cats infected with FeSVs will develop tumors, and other factors such as the cat's age, immune status, and genetic background may also play a role in the development of disease.
A fibroma is a benign tumor or growth consisting primarily of fibrous or connective tissue, often found in various parts of the body such as the skin, mouth, or internal organs.
A fibroma is a benign (non-cancerous) tumor that consists primarily of fibrous or connective tissue. It can occur in various parts of the body, including the skin, mouth, and internal organs. The term "fibroma" is often used to describe any benign fibrous growth, but there are specific types of fibromas such as dermatofibroma (found in the skin), oral fibroma (found in the mouth), and benign fibrous histiocytoma (found in soft tissues).
It's important to note that while fibromas are generally harmless, they can cause discomfort or problems depending on their size and location. If a fibroma is causing issues or there's concern about its growth or malignancy, it should be evaluated by a healthcare professional for potential removal or further assessment.
A syndrome is a set of symptoms that collectively indicate a specific disease, disorder, or condition, often representing a common pathway or pattern of underlying physiological processes and/or anatomical abnormalities.
A syndrome, in medical terms, is a set of symptoms that collectively indicate or characterize a disease, disorder, or underlying pathological process. It's essentially a collection of signs and/or symptoms that frequently occur together and can suggest a particular cause or condition, even though the exact physiological mechanisms might not be fully understood.
For example, Down syndrome is characterized by specific physical features, cognitive delays, and other developmental issues resulting from an extra copy of chromosome 21. Similarly, metabolic syndromes like diabetes mellitus type 2 involve a group of risk factors such as obesity, high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and abnormal cholesterol or triglyceride levels that collectively increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.
It's important to note that a syndrome is not a specific diagnosis; rather, it's a pattern of symptoms that can help guide further diagnostic evaluation and management.
