Abstract
This report describes a family with familial polyposis and lymphoid polyps in which a single member exhibits features of Gardner's Syndrome. A review of the literature pertaining to the simultaneous occurrence of lymphoid polyposis with Gardner's Syndrome and familial polyposis is presented. The importance of histologic diagnosis is stressed.
