The basal cell naevi and jaw cyst syndrome

AbstractGorlin–Goltz syndrome, is an uncommon genetic condition characterized by the presence of multiple odontogenic keratocysts of jaws along with several other abnormal, cutaneous, ophthalmic, and osseous displays. This syndrome is also acknowledged by various names, such as nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome, jaw cyst, and bifid rib syndrome. This article illustrates about the clinical, radiological, and histological diagnostic findings and the multidisciplinary approach of treatment given to one such rare case of Gorlin–Goltz syndrome.

Mixed Tumors

Sebaceous gland tumors and other tumors exhibiting sebaceous differentiation have been described in humans (1,2,3). Tumors of the sebaceous gland can be induced in rats and mice following topical application of carcinogens (4), but spontaneous mixed tumors of basal cell origin rarely occur in mice.
