Hyer W.: the management of polyposis syndromes in paediatric patients

Three for two today ; one interviewer and two guests, Dr Warren Hyer and Ms Fiona Cargill-Marin in this ESPGHAN podcast, with its theme the management of polyposis syndromes in paediatric patients :  Not so much the from-what-age and the what-to-look-for as the origin of the guidelines first put forward by ESPGHAN going on five years ago and spearheaded by Dr Hyer, who is among the leaders of a well-coördinated effort to systematise relevant care, bringing it away from adult endoscopy services and into a paediatric model – family care rather than simply patient care, modulation through adolescence into adulthood, and the like.  Ms Cargill-Marin, as a paediatric nurse-practitioner in the clinic at St Mark’s Hospital (London) where Dr Hyer is active, offers her perspective on how such a multimodal clinic can function well.     Literature : Hyer W et al.  Management of familial adenomatous polyposis in children and adolescents:  Position paper from the ESPGHAN polyposis working group.  J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr 2019 Mar 68(3):428-441.  Doi:  10.1097/MPG.0000000000002247.  PMID:  30585891.
