Abstract
|
|
|
|
Cowden`s disease, also known as various hamartomatous malformations of multiple organs, is a rare autosomal dominant disorder. The most important feature of Cowden`s disease is its frequent association with malignant neoplasm, particularly in the breast and thyroid gland. Cowden`s disease with malignant neoplasms, is quite rare in Korea so far. We report a case of Cowden`s disease associated with breast cancer in a 41-year-old female who underwent routine health cheek-up. (Korean J Gastroenterol 2007;49:183-186)
