Methods Retrospectively analyzed of the clinical data was made on 45 FAP patients.The choice of operative procedure included total colectomy+ileostomy in 25 cases,subtotal colectomy+rectal polyposis electrocautery in 15,and total colectomy with ileo-anal anastomosis in 5. Results Average age of patients at first diagnosis was 33.5 years. A family history was found in 35 patients. Bleeding, diarrhea, pain are common clinical presentations, and the numbers of polyposis were all more than 100. All patients without malignant change survived for 3-21years;and metastasis of liver was the main cause of death in patients with malignant change. There were age differences between malignant and non malignant group. Conclusions FAP lacks typical clinical presentation, and misdiagnosis is not uncommon. Surgical therapy should be done on an individual basis and according to the actual condition of patients.
