Red Flag Origin

DefinitionFamily pedigree suggestive of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS): any of (a) a family member with a known pathogenic STK11 / LKB1 variant; (b) classic Peutz-Jeghers clinical phenotype in proband or relative — characteristic mucocutaneous melanin pigmentation (peri-oral, buccal mucosa, perianal, digital tips) together with at least one characteristic Peutz-Jeghers GI hamartomatous polyp (small bowel, colon, or stomach); (c) a first-degree relative with a clinical PJS diagnosis and a personal or family history of small-bowel intussusception requiring intervention (the classic PJS childhood presentation, often the index acute event leading to diagnosis). No current personal cancer diagnosis in the individual at risk. Prevention-persona RedFlag (§20 ratification 2026-05-18, v0.2-B hereditary pilot — additional).

Notes

v0.2-B hereditary pilot — Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. Fires on pedigree- based suspicion of PJS in an asymptomatic individual (no current cancer diagnosis). Engine routes to PreventionPlan recommending: (a) genetic counseling + germline STK11 panel testing via IND-PEUTZ-JEGHERS-SUSPICION-PREVENTION-GENETIC-COUNSELING (standard) (b) empirical multi-organ Peutz-Jeghers surveillance for patients declining testing via IND-PEUTZ-JEGHERS-SUSPICION-PREVENTION- ENHANCED-SURVEILLANCE (alternative). Triggers correspond to established PJS clinical and pedigree criteria. WHO / NCCN diagnostic criteria for PJS: (i) ≥2 PJS-type hamartomatous polyps confirmed histologically; (ii) any number of PJS polyps + family history of PJS; (iii) characteristic mucocutaneous pigmentation + family history of PJS; (iv) characteristic mucocutaneous pigmentation + any PJS polyp. The pedigree-suspicion triggers in this RF map to those criteria from the "asymptomatic relative" perspective. STUB pending two-Clinical-Co-Lead signoff per CHARTER §6.1 dev-mode exemption.
