Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate odontogenic keratocysts associated with basal cell nevus syndrome (BCNS) using computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resornance imaging (MRI) including diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and compare them with sporadic cases.

Materials And Methods: This study investigated 17 outpatients who underwent panoramic radiography, CT, and MRI between August 2012 and January 2021. Five of these patients had BCNS had 16 odontogenic keratocysts, for which the authors recorded detailed findings.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study examines the rare skeletal anomaly known as bifid rib, which appears in less than 1.5% of the population and faces challenges in identification due to postmortem damage and similarity to other conditions.
  • - It presents five cases of rib bifurcation from four individuals across different populations in the Kujawy region of Poland, analyzed through morphological and paleoradiological methods.
  • - The research also critiques existing evidence linking bifurcated ribs to naevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome and proposes a new way to classify this anomaly in osteological studies.

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.

Background: Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is a partial manifestation of Gorlin syndrome (GS), resulting from the abnormal activation of the hedgehog signaling pathway. OKC predominantly occurs in young adults and is mostly asymptomatic at the time of initial diagnosis. As OKC is asymptomatic, GS can be challenging to diagnose in certain instances.
