In 1998, STK11 (LKB1) mutations were first identified in the pathogenesis of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. The syndrome is named after Jans Peutz (1886-1957), a Dutch physician and Harold Jeghers (1904-1990), an American physician who had successively described the association between polyposis and the mucocutaneous macules.[1]
