Juvenile polyposis syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant disorder in children characterized by multiple polyps in the gastrointestinal tract. A variety of clinical features manifest, including prolapse of a polyp or entire rectum, gastrointestinal bleeding, anaemia, and intussusception. This condition if left unmanaged promptly leads to fatal complications including the development of cancer of the bowel. <jats:italic>Case Presentation<\/jats:italic>. A 13-year-old girl with a history of mass protrusion per anus associated with bloody diarrhea. Colonoscopy showed multiple polyps in her large bowel. She underwent total colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis and did clinically well post surgery with no complications. <jats:italic>Conclusion<\/jats:italic>. Juvenile polyposis syndrome is an inherited condition with significant morbidity and a high risk of colon malignancy. It is important for early screening and diagnosis and hence management in its early stages as there are no specific standard guidelines for children.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2020\/1536090","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,4]],"date-time":"2020-03-04T23:31:49Z","timestamp":1583364709000},"page":"1-4","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Juvenile Polyposis Syndrome in a Young Girl from Northern Tanzania"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2020","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3373-5762","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Jay","family":"Lodhia","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery, Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Center, PO Box, 3010 Moshi, Tanzania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"David","family":"Msuya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery, Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Center, PO Box, 3010 Moshi, Tanzania"},{"name":"Kilimanjaro Christian Medical University College, PO Box 2240, Moshi, Tanzania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Abdallah","family":"Msemo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatrics, Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Center, PO Box 3010, Moshi, Tanzania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Huda","family":"Akrabi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Kilimanjaro Christian Medical University College, PO Box 2240, Moshi, Tanzania"},{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Center, PO Box 3010, Moshi, Tanzania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Patrick","family":"Amsi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Kilimanjaro Christian Medical University College, PO Box 2240, Moshi, Tanzania"},{"name":"Department of Pathology, Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Center, PO Box 3010, Moshi, Tanzania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6154-5301","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Deborah","family":"Mchaile","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Kilimanjaro Christian Medical University College, PO Box 2240, Moshi, Tanzania"},{"name":"Department of Pediatrics, Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Center, PO Box 3010, Moshi, Tanzania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kondo","family":"Chilonga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery, Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Center, PO Box, 3010 Moshi, Tanzania"},{"name":"Kilimanjaro Christian Medical University College, PO Box 2240, Moshi, Tanzania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","reference":[{"key":"1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2019.04.041"},{"key":"2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MD.0000000000004550"},{"volume-title":"Juvenile polyposis syndrome","year":"2017","key":"3"},{"key":"4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MPG.0000000000002246"},{"key":"5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1440-1746.2005.03865.x"},{"key":"6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MPG.0b013e3181a15ae8"},{"key":"7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3748\/wjg.v17.i44.4839"}],"container-title":["Case Reports in Surgery"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/cris\/2020\/1536090.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/cris\/2020\/1536090.xml","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/cris\/2020\/1536090.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,4]],"date-time":"2020-03-04T23:31:51Z","timestamp":1583364711000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.hindawi.com\/journals\/cris\/2020\/1536090\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,4]]},"references-count":7,"alternative-id":["1536090","1536090"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2020\/1536090","relation":{},"ISSN":["2090-6900","2090-6919"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"2090-6900"},{"type":"electronic","value":"2090-6919"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,4]]}}}
