Chronic rectal bleeding in Proteus syndrome.
[proteus syndrome]
Proteus
Syndrome
is
a
rare
congenital
hamartomatous
disorder
that
typically
manifests
itself
in
overgrowth
,
vascular
malformation
and
disregulation
of
fatty
tissue
.
The
tissues
affected
are
commonly
the
limbs
but
can
be
of
any
tissue
.
Vascular
anomalies
are
common
and
appear
at
random
sites
on
the
body
.
Diagnosis
is
often
difficult
leading
to
wrong
treatment
.
We
describe
a
case
of
a
17
-
year
-old
girl
with
Proteus
syndrome
presented
with
symptomatic
anaemia
secondary
to
chronic
rectal
bleeding
.
Computed
Tomography
Angiogram
of
Abdomen
and
Pelvis
confirmed
the
presence
of
rectal
vascular
malformations
.
