Resumen

La Enfermedad de Cowden (EC), también conocida como «Síndrome de Neoplasias-Hamartomas Múltiples», es una rara e infra-diagnosticada entidad hereditaria autosómica dominante caracterizada por la presencia de múltiples hamartomas de origen mesodérmico, en-dodérmico y ectodérmico, así como por una alta incidencia de presen-tación de tumores malignos. Actualmente se clasifica como un síndro-me preneoplásico hereditario.
