Juvenile polyposis syndrome prevalence is 1 in 16,000 to 1 in 100,000 which usually present at the age of 20 years. The tumor is likely to change into malignant condition in 20% of cases. Here we present this rare syndrome in a 16-year boy. BJHS 2018;3(2)6:492-494.

We describe the case of a 16-year-old male patient with BMPR1A mutation and incidentally detected atrial septal defect (ASD). This patient was diagnosed with BMPR1A mutation through genetic testing and was attending for routine surveillance endoscopy when ASD was incidentally diagnosed. He was referred to cardiology outpatient clinic with plans for elective ASD closure. Through this case report we aim to discuss the pathophysiology of juvenile polyposis syndrome (JPS), highlight what we believe to be a novel presentation of comorbid BMPR1A mutation and ASD and hypothesise that patients with BMPR1A mutation and JPS may be at risk of previously unrecognised cardiovascular complications analogous to the previous association of SMAD4 JPS and cardiac abnormalities.

Juvenile polyposis syndrome (JPS) and hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) are rare autosomal dominant diseases, where symptoms manifest at childhood. A 32-year-old man with no family history of JPS or HHT with SMAD4 gene mutation who developed signs and symptoms only at the age of 32, when he was an adult. In this article, we highlight the steps taken to diagnose this rare pathology, explain its pathophysiology and management.
