Application of Technetium-99m-Labeled Human Serum Albumin Scan to Assist Surgical Treatment of Protein-Losing Enteropathy in Cronkhite-Canada Syndrome: Report of A Case
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cronkhite-Canada syndrome is a rare form of nonhereditary gastrointestinal polyposis associated with ectodermal change and protein-losing enteropathy. Here we report a 63-year-old male presenting with diffuse gastrointestinal polyposis, onychodystrophy, cutaneous pigmentation, alopecia, diarrhea, hypoalbuminemia and lower leg edema. Technetium-99m-labeled human serum albumin scan confirmed the patient to have protein-losing enteropathy, which originated from the transverse and descending colon. Subtotal colectomy was performed. Albumin level and ectodermal change were gradually improved during three years of outpatient clinic follow-up. Based on our finding, Technetium-99m-labeled human serum albumin scintigraphy is helpful to localize the protein-losing origins and surgery is an effective treatment for Cronkhite-Canada syndrome with protein-losing enteropathy.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
