ABSTRACT
Since the 1980s it has been recognized that the polyps of juvenile polyposis have malignant potential. Since the introduction of colonoscopy this syndrome has been redefined and the hamartoma-adenoma-carcinoma sequence recognized. We believe this case is the first report of an invasive carcinoma associated with juvenile polyposis to be described in an African patient.
