“…ou fibromes souscutanés, ainsi que les ostéomes ne dégénèrent pas. Le syndrome de Oldfield [Oldfield, 1954] [1975] viennent de décrire chez deux soeurs des fibromes péri-folliculaires multiples du visage, du cou et du corps, des fibromes pendulum du cou, des creux axillaires et des plis de l'aine associés à des polypes du côlon. Nous avons résumé dans un tableau comparatif (tab.…”

Numerous skin lesions: sebaceous hyperplasias, benign acanthoma, keratoacanthomas and squamous cell epitheliomas appeared on the face, especially on the nose, on the cheeks and around the lips of a 45-year-old obese man with mild diabetes. In 1969, an adenocarcinoma had been found in the rectosigmoid and another one in the colon. In 1974, an excision of a well-differenciated epidermoid carcinoma was performed in the right external auditory meatus. A rectoscopy showed a micropolyp at the rectosigmoid junction. In 1975, an abdominal exploration was performed following a sudden relapse of about 50 skin lesions in the face, partly sebaceous adenomas, partly sebaceous gland épithéliomas, and about 10 precancerous lesions on the dorsum of the hands. A villous adenoma of the colon was removed. Inheritance appears to the autosomal dominant with variability in the expressiveness of the cutaneo-intestinal symptoms.

“…Incomplete manifestations of Gardner's syndrome occur in many families, the polyposis coli being accompanied by only soft tissue or bony lesions, respectively. Occasionally, the extracolonic manifestations may occur without polyposis [32]. Patients with otherwise classic familial multiple polyposis have the tendency to develop desmoid tumors, small bowel adhesions, and other evidence of fibrous dysplasia.…”

The intestinal polyposis syndromes represent a challenging diagnostic problem for the radiologist. These syndromes include: familial multiple polyposis, Gardner's, Peutz-Jeghers, Turcot's, Cronkhite-Canada and juvenile polyposis. The polyposis syndromes can usually be differentiated from one another on the basis of the clinical history, examination of the mucocutaneous tissues and roentgen findings. Numerous other conditions, however, may mimmic a polyposis syndrome, and must be considered in the differential diagnosis.

“…Other authors have recorded a variety of subcutaneous benign tumours such as lipoma (Laberge, Saver & Mayo, 1957), osteoma (Weiner & Cooper, 1955), desmoid tumours and epidermoid cysts (Oldfield, 1954;Staley, 1961), which have appeared prior to colonic symptoms. Polyps occur only in those with skin lesions, which therefore serve a useful purpose in indicating those at risk.…”
