What syndrome is associated with multiple odontomas and intestinal polyps?

  1. CEOT

  2. McCune-Albright syndrome

  3. Gardner's syndrome

  4. Hyperparathyroidism

The correct answer is: Gardner's syndrome

Gardner's syndrome is the correct answer. Gardner's syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that is characterized by the development of multiple odontomas (benign tumors derived from dental tissue) and intestinal polyps (polyps in the colon and rectum). This syndrome also includes other features such as soft tissue tumors, osteomas (benign bone tumors), and skin tumors. The other options are not associated with the combination of multiple odontomas and intestinal polyps seen in Gardner's syndrome. CEOT (Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor), McCune-Albright syndrome, and hyperparathyroidism do not typically present with this specific combination of odontomas and intestinal polyps.
