Abstract

We report the case of a 30-year old woman, who was diagnosed with Peutz–Jeghers Syndrome (PJS) at the age of 12 when she presented with small intestinal intussusception. Her supervising physician referred her for complete gastrointestinal and extraintestinal malignancy screening in keeping with PJS management guidelines. Screening mammography revealed extensive bilateral microcalcifications, proven to be high grade ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) by stereotactic core biopsy. She opted for bilateral skin-sparing mastectomy, with immediate latissimus dorsi flap reconstruction.
