Abstract :
One of the clinicopathological criteria for diagnosing Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) is mucocutaneous pigmentation. We present a
57-year-old Iranian female patient with diffuse pigmentation in buccal and labial mucosa. The first colonoscopy revealed one 0.5 cm
rectal polyp. However surveillance colonoscopies over a 7-year polyp showed over 100 colorectal polyps.
