In 1955, LW Cronkhite of the United States and WJ Canada of Canada reported this disease as a rare polyposis (a condition in which there are countless polyps), which is accompanied by gastrointestinal polyposis, hair loss, deformation or loss of nails, and brown discoloration of the skin. Countless polyps occur in the stomach, small intestine, and large intestine, but unlike other polyposis, it is not a tumor or inflammation. It is a rare disease of unknown cause. It does not occur in families and is more common in middle-aged and elderly people. It begins with loose stools and progresses to severe diarrhea, loss of appetite, and weight loss.
