This session presents two pediatric patients with hamartomatous polyp syndromes that benefited from the utilization of capsule endoscopy (CE) as a screening tool. CE is a well-tolerated procedure that helps identify small bowel abnormalities in patients with hamartomatous polyps that may be amenable to endoscopic removal. CE should be considered as the modality of choice for the screening evaluation of these children.
