- Abstract
- Gardners syndrome is a single gene disorder with variable manifestations associated with the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene; including gastrointestinal polyposis and osteomas associated
with a variety of benign soft tissue tumors and other extraintestinal manifestations. Infrequently
associated tumors include papillary carcinoma of the thyroid, biliary neoplasia and adrenal neoplasia,
both benign and malignant. It is classified as a variant of classic familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP)
and is an autosomal dominant disease. The incidence of incidentaloma in FAP patients is known to be
higher than general population. The occurrence of an adrenal carcinoma could affect a patient's
prognosis with Gardners syndrome. Increased awareness of this lesion is important in patients with
Gardners syndrome who have extended lifespan after prophylactic colectomy. We report a 37 year old
case of Gardners syndrome associate with adrenal adenoma.(Korean J Med 71:415-419, 2006)
