Core Tip
Core tip: Few options currently exist for the therapeutic management of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome with synchronous rectal cancer. Here, we present a patient diagnosed with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome with synchronous rectal cancer treated with laparoscopic restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA). The patient has experienced no further episodes of gastrointestinal bleeding and has demonstrated satisfactory bowel control. To our knowledge, this is the first report on laparoscopic restorative proctocolectomy with IPAA performed for the treatment of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome with synchronous rectal cancer.
