Fecal calprotectin is commonly used as a quantitative marker for intestinal inflammation, predominantly in inflammatory bowel disease; however, the role of this laboratory value has not been well established for patients with juvenile polyps. We present 2 cases illustrating high fecal calprotectin levels caused by very large juvenile polyps.
