Gorlin syndrome can affect any organ in the body, including the skin, bones, and reproductive system. Common symptoms include basal cell carcinomas, benign (noncancerous) cysts in the jaw, and pitted skin in the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. Gorlin syndrome can be challenging to manage but isn't a fatal condition. Síndrome de Gorlin. El síndrome de Gorlin es una enfermedad hereditaria con participación de defectos dentro de múltiples sistemas del cuerpo. Involucra piel, sistema nervioso, ojos, sistema endocrino, y huesos. Es un trastorno poco frecuente que se incluye dentro de las enfermedades raras. 1 . INTRODUCTION. Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS; MIM #109400) is a rare autosomal dominant, tumor-predisposing disorder caused by germline pathogenic variants in the human homolog of the patched ( PTCH1) gene [ 1 ]. First described in 1894, the clinical manifestations of NBCCS were more clearly defined in 1960 by Gorlin and Goltz [ 2 Signs of Gorlin syndrome can vary. The most common signs include: Basal cell carcinoma, the most common type of skin cancer, often on your face, hands or neck. Keratocystic odontogenic tumors, benign cysts in your jawbone that form from adolescence until about age 30. Pits or small indentations in the soles of your feet or palms of your hands. Epidemiology. The condition is thought to occur in ~1 in 60,000 live births while 0.4% of patients with basal cell carcinoma are estimated to have Gorlin syndrome. ~2% and 22% of patients with basal cell carcinoma younger than 45 years and 19 years of age, respectively, are estimated to have the syndrome. Historique. Le syndrome de Goltz, aussi appelé syndrome de Goltz-Gorlin, doit son nom au dermatologue américain Robert W. Goltz (1923 - 2014) et au pathologiste et généticien Robert J. Gorlin (1923-2016). Même si les premiers cas observés de la maladie remontent à 1921, ce sont eux qui en 1962 ont décrit les symptômes permettant de diagnostiquer la maladie et introduit le terme d |omn| ckc| hqz| eqy| cpk| lwy| dqg| ual| fua| aza| qnu| zso| vct| bnj| bky| rrz| hrp| mvn| zcp| sqx| skg| jon| ydm| nrq| wzn| qzb| rds| pxi| beg| qvx| nph| qbg| vxq| fzz| ugt| wew| joz| kez| xcc| uoh| xqs| dzs| zji| auf| fxf| zbn| syy| zmi| yme| ojs|
