Core Tip
Core Tip: Solitary rectal ulcer syndrome (SRUS) is a rare rectal disease with unknown etiology. Data on the genetic background in SRUS is lacking. Here, we present the first case of SRUS in a mother-son relationship. Gene sequencing and experiment preliminarily indicate that SRUS may serve as a genetic susceptibility disease in which CHEK2 p.H371Y mutation may play a crucial role in the development and prognosis of SRUS. This case may offer some new insights into the virulence genes and genetic background of SRUS.
