| familial polyposis | An inherited condition in which several hundred polyps develop in the colon and rectum. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| 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) |
| familial adenomatous polyposis | <gastroenterology> Genetic disease with numerous precancerous polyps in the colon and rectum. Also called familial polyposis. (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. Hamartomatous polyposis of the small or large intestine, Peutz-Jeghers syndrome with melanin spots on the lips, less common, miscellaneous, rare, and doubtful occurrences. Synonym: familial intestinal polyposis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| 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) |
| multiple 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. Hamartomatous polyposis of the small or large intestine, Peutz-Jeghers syndrome with melanin spots on the lips, less common, miscellaneous, rare, and doubtful occurrences. Synonym: familial intestinal polyposis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| polyposis | Presence of several polyps. Origin: polyp + G. -osis, condition (05 Mar 2000) |
| 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) |
| polyposis syndromes | <radiology> Inher. Malig. Type familial polyposis coli dom and adenoma Gardner syndrome dom and Turcot syndrome rec CNS Peutz-Jeghers syndrome dom (+) hamartoma Cowden syndrome dom ? juvenile polyposis coli (?) - juvenile Cronkhite-Canada syndrome (12 Dec 1998) |
| juvenile polyposis coli | <radiology> Benign polyposis, inheritance uncertain, inflammatory or retention polyps: round, smooth, soft, mucin-filled, non-neoplastic, onset less than 10 yrs, polyps can prolapse through anus, associated with diarrhoea, protein loss see: polyposis syndromes, Cronkhite-Canada syndrome (12 Dec 1998) |
| filiform polyposis | <radiology> Benign, non-specific sequela of diffuse, severe mucosal inflammation, UC, Crohn's, XR: thin, straight filling defects, resembles stalks of polyps without heads (12 Dec 1998) |
| benign familial chorea | A rare, nonprogressive movement disorder characterised by chorea and athetosis appearing in early childhood, most commonly manifested as gait ataxia and upper limb coordination. Intellect is unaffected. Probably autosomal-dominance inheritance with incomplete penetrance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| benign familial chronic pemphigus | Recurrent eruption of vesicles and bullae that become scaling and crusted lesions with vesicular borders, predominantly of the neck, groin, and axillary regions; autosomal dominant inheritance, presenting in late adolescence or early adult life. Synonym: Hailey-Hailey disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| benign familial icterus | Mild jaundice due to increased amounts of unconjugated bilirubin in the plasma without evidence of liver damage, biliary obstruction, or haemolysis; thought to be due to an inborn error of metabolism in which the excretion of bilirubin by the liver is defective, ascribed to decreased conjugation of bilirubin as a glucuronide or impaired uptake of hepatic bilirubin. Synonym: benign familial icterus, constitutional hepatic dysfunction, Gilbert's disease, Gilbert's syndrome, Hebra's disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cancer, breast, familial | A number of factors have been identified that increase the risk of breast cancer. One of the strongest of these risk factors is the history of breast cancer in a relative. About 15-20% of women with breast cancer have such a family history of the disease, clearly reflecting the participation of inherited (genetic) components in the development of some breast cancers. Dominant breast cancer suceptibility genes, including BRCA1 and BRCA2, appear responsible for about 5% of all breast cancer. (12 Dec 1998) |
| paralysis, familial periodic | An autosomal dominant trait marked by recurring attacks of rapidly progressive flaccid paralysis. There are three types: I, associated with a fall in serum potassium levels (hypokalaemic periodic paralysis); II, associated with a rise therein (hyperkalaemic periodic paralysis, called also adynamia episodica hereditaria); and III, with normal levels (normokalaemic periodic paralysis). (12 Dec 1998) |
| pemphigus, benign familial | Rare hereditary disease characterised by recurrent eruptions of vesicles and bullae mainly on the neck, axillae, and groin. It exhibits autosomal dominant inheritance and is unrelated to pemphigus vulgaris though it closely resembles that disease. (12 Dec 1998) |
