Abstract
Cronkhite- Canada syndrome (CCS) considered as a rare and non-hereditary disorder. Gastrointestinal polyposis and diarrhea along with some extra signs and symptoms such as hypoproteinemia, and epidermal manifestations are recognized in this syndrome. The pathophysiology of this syndrome is not completely understood and it seems that inflammatory processes may be involved. We present a 50 year-old man with hamartomatous polyps throughout the colon and long-lasting diarrhea not responding to typical therapies during three years.
