Background Cowden syndrome (CS) is a autosomal dominant inherited syndrome. These patients are characterized by multiple hamartomas occurring in the skin, breast, thyroid, gastrointestinal tract, endometrium, and brain. Patients do have an increased risk of experiencing malignant tumors with the most common ones are breast, endometrial, and thyroid cancer.

CD is named after the family of Rachel Cowden in whom the disorder was described in 1963. CD's mode of inheritance was identified in 1972 and the alternative name of Multiple Hamartoma syndrome was suggested. It is estimated that CD affects 1:300,000 individuals but is underdiagnosed. Both males and females are affected by CD. Onset is usually by the late 20s. CD is caused by mutations of the PTEN tumour suppressor gene on chromosome10. Features of CD may include: Hamartomas most commonly to be found on the skin and mucous membranes such as the lining of the mouth and nose but also in the intestines and other parts of the body; Non-cancerous tumours of the breast and thyroid;

Cowden Syndrome A Guide for patients and their families That's Not The Name My Doctor Gave Me Sarah Burton, UI Health Care Joy Larsen Haidle, M.S., C.G.C., UI Health Care Heather Hampel, M.S., C.G.C., Ohio State University Charis Eng, M.D., Ph.D., Ohio State University Peer Review Status: Internally reviewed by the authors First Published: Last Revised: April 2002 Other Names The use of different names can be confusing. The problem started when several different groups of physicians and researchers began describing collections of features they observed in their patients. Each group believed that they were describing a new condition. Because CS consists of various features that occur at different times or not at all, the names became even more confused. Simply put, different people will show different features even though they have the same genetic condition. That was enough to make researchers at the time believe they were describing different conditions. In fact, scientists did not realize that all these names were describing one condition until 1986 when it was proposed that Bannayan syndrome and Ruvalcaba-Myhre syndrome were one and the same. In 1996, the overlap of features in CS and Bannayan-Riley-Ruvalcaba syndrome was recognized and molecular evidence for this observation was reported in 1997 and 1999. Since then, many names have been added to the list of syndromes. Below are several names that you may encounter as well. Bannayan-Zonana syndrome Riley-Smith syndrome Ruvalcaba-Myhre syndrome

It is associated with the increased risk of colorectal cancer. Ataxia-Telangiectasia : This inherited disorder affects many multiple systems in the body, including progressive degeneration of the cerebellum, a part of the brain, the appearance of spider veins, immunodeficiency that leads to recurrent respiratory infections, and a predisposition to cancer. It may include cancer of the brain, breast, leukemia, lymphoma, skin, stomach and uterus. Basal Cell Nevus Syndrome Bloom Syndrome : An inherited disorder characterized by short height, a sun-sensitive redness on the face, susceptibility to infections, and a tendency to develop several types of cancers, including breast, cervix, colon, esophagus, larynx, lung, skin, and tongue cancers, and leukemia and lymphoma. : A mutation prevents this gene from producing a tumor suppression protein which controls cell growth. This gene was discovered in 1995 and is linked to breast and pancreatic cancer, and possibly colon and prostate cancer.

A PRACTICAL APPROACH TO GASTROINTESTINAL PATHOLOGY COLORECTAL MUCOSAL PROLAPSE SYNDROMES Robert E. Petras, M.D. Introduction Case 4 - Solitary Rectal Ulcer Syndrome Case 4 - Solitary Rectal Ulcer Syndrome The solitary rectal ulcer syndrome, localized colitis cystica profunda, and inflammatory cloacogenic polyp are closely allied conditions that have been linked to bowel prolapse. Affected patients often demonstrate abnormal function of the anal and pelvic floor musculature during defecation that leads to rectal mucosal prolapse or even intussusception. The resulting trauma is thought to cause the clinical symptoms and the pathologic changes. The term solitary rectal ulcer syndrome is quite a misnomer because the ulcers are often multiple, there is preulcer polypoid phase, and similar lesions occur in the anal canal and sigmoid colon. Additionally, colitis cystica profunda and inflammatory cloacogenic polyp are also misnomers. Since all three conditions share a common histologic appearance, clinical presentation, clinical course, and pathogenesis, I prefer to consider them together under the heading mucosal prolapse syndromes. Clinical Presentation Patients with mucosal prolapse syndrome range in age form 10-83 years with the majority presenting in the third and fourth decade of life. The condition occurs more commonly in women.
