| adenomatous polyposis coli | An autosomal dominant polyposis syndrome in which the colon contains few to thousands of adenomatous polyps, often occurring by age 15 to 25. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| familial intestinal polyposis | Begins usually in late childhood; polyps increase in numbers, causing symptoms of chronic colitis, and carcinoma of the colon almost invariably develops in untreated cases; autosomal dominant inheritance. In the Gardner syndrome there are extracolonic changes (desmoid tumours, etc.). Synonym: polyposis coli.

| familial polyposis coli | <gastroenterology, oncology> A inherited, disorder where there are multiple adenomatous polyps (up to several thousand) in the colon. Malignant degeneration of the polyps (to colon carcinoma) occurs in virtually 100% by age 40. Inheritance: autosomal dominant. (27 Sep 1997) |

| polyposis coli | Hereditary disorder (Mendelian dominant) characterised by the development of hundreds of adenomatous polyps in the large intestine, which show a tendency to progress to malignancy. The APC gene has also been implicated in a chromosome 5 gastric and pancreatic cancer. (18 Nov 1997) |

| familial adenomatous polyposis |
FAP. An inherited condition in which numerous polyps (growths that protrude from mucous membranes) form on the inside walls of the colon and rectum. It increases the risk for colorectal cancer. Also called familial polyposis.

| familial adenomatous polyposis |
A rare genetic disorder of the intestines characterized by "carpet-like" growths of polyps that develop along the inner walls of the colon. These areas of abnormal growth typically develop at a relatively young age.
