Background: Basal cell nevus syndrome, also known as Gorlin or Gorlin-Goltz syndrome, is a hereditary condition caused by mutation in the PATCHED gene. The syndrome presents with a wide range of clinical manifestations, including basal cell carcinomas, jaw cysts, and skeletal anomalies. Diagnosis is based on specific criteria, and treatment typically includes surgical removal of basal cell carcinomas.

Introduction: Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder classically associated with multiple basal cell carcinomas, odontogenic keratocysts and skeletal anomalies. However, its significant phenotypic heterogeneity often delays the diagnosis. Here, we undertake the first comprehensive characterisation of NBCCS and congenital urinary tract anomalies.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study focuses on Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS), a rare condition linked to high rates of basal cell carcinoma, potentially caused by mutations in the PTCH1 gene.
  • - Researchers identified a new nonsense mutation in the PTCH1 gene in a mother and her daughter, both of whom also had ovarian mature teratomas.
  • - Treatment outcomes showed persistent issues for both individuals, underscoring the complex effects of the mutation and related health challenges.
