Gorlin-Goltz Syndrome, also known as Nevoid Basal Cell Carcinoma Syndrome, is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the presence of multiple keratocysts in the jaw and basal cell carcinomas, at young age, of palmar and/or plantar depressions, of calcification of the sickle cerebral and skeletal malformations. This syndrome is caused by a mutation of the PTCH1 (patched homolog 1 from Drosophila) gene, a tumor suppressor gene. In this work, the systemic and maxillofacial characteristics of the Gorlin-Goltz syndrome, as well as some neurological, dermatological, musculoskeletal and endocrine alterations, are reviewed. In addition, a case report was added for the purpose of support this study.

Basal cell carcinoma of the penis is an extremely rare entity, accounting for less than 0.03% of all basal cell carcinomas. Fortunately, wide local excision of such lesions is generally curative. Fewer than 25 cases have been reported in the literature describing penile basal cell carcinoma. Here we report a case of penile basal cell carcinoma cured with wide local excision.

Skin cancers are the most common malignant tumors in general. The most significant risk factor is exposure to UV radiation. They mainly occur in the head and neck region, and the majority of about 80% are basal cell carcinomas. Surgery is standard treatment of uncomplicated basal cell carcinomas, but a multidisciplinary approach is necessary in advanced cases. The case report refers to a patient with locally advanced recurrent basal cell carcinoma with primary tumor localization in the right auricle and parotid region in 2012 when primary surgery was performed. Due to the local recurrence, amputation of the right auricle and trepanation of the mastoid process was done in November 2018, and after that, radiation therapy of a recurrent tumor in the area of the trepanation cavity was applied. In the course of follow-up so far, there is good local control, without signs of toxicity. The case report points to the importance of a multidisciplinary approach and the role of radiotherapy in the treatment and control of advanced basal cell carcinoma of this region.

Basal cell carcinomas (BCC) of the foot are rare. A review of the English literature found only 23 cases of BCC reported in the foot, none of which involved the nail unit. The nail unit, which is composed of the nail bed and nail-folds, is an exceedingly atypical site for basal cell carcinomas. A case of BCC of the proximal nail fold of the hallux which was treated with Mohs Micrographic Surgery (MMS) is presented. 16 – 21

Introduction: Gorlin syndrome or nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS) is a rare genetic disorder characterised by development of multiple basal cell carcinomas (BCC) at a young age. Case report: A 7 year female child presented with MULTIPLE skin growths on the neck, face and upper chest for 3 years, with prominent forehead and mild non-scarring alopecia. She also had a history of medulloblastoma treated 3 years ago. There was no significant family history. Biopsy from one of the lesions showed basal cell carcinoma (BCC). Discussion: Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS) is an autosomal dominantly inherited disorder caused by mutations in the tumour suppressor patched 1 (PTCH-1) gene. Patients present with both cutaneous and extra-cutaneous manifestations. Multiple basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) are one of the most frequent cutaneous manifestations, occurring on both photo-exposed and non-exposed areas. The commonest extra-cutaneous tumours are medulloblastomas, which are often the first presentation of the disease. There are multiple but no established treatment modalities for the disease.

Introdução: A síndrome de Gorlin-Goltz é compreendida como uma condição hereditária autossômica dominante, causada por uma alteração no gene patched (PTCH), localizado no cromossomo 9q22.3-q31, este gene regula as funções de supressão tumoral, organização embrionária e ciclo celular, as mutações no gene PTCH levam a o efeito da perda de controle de vários outros genes responsaveis pela organogênese, carcinogênese e odontogênese. Objetivo: O presente trabalho tem como objetivo descrever um caso onde o paciente foi diagnosticado com a Síndrome do carcinoma nevoide basocelular. Relato de caso: Paciente, feoderma, 17 anos, sexo masculino, foi encaminhando ao serviço de Cirurgia e Traumatologia Bucomaxilofacial, com queixa de aumento de volume na região de maxila e mandíbula à direta, associado a quadros de dores. Durante a anamnese o paciente negou doenças ou comorbidades prévias. Ao exame físico, apresentou assimetria facial, com tumefação em hemiface direita, discreto hipertelorismo, bossa frontal acentuada, múltiplas máculas na região torax e membro superior direito. O exame tomográfico de face evidenciavam-se múltiplas imagens hipodensas  em todos os quadrantes da maxila e mandibula. Com base nos critérios diagnósticos o paciente foi diagnostico com a síndrome de Gorlin-Goltz. Após o fechamento do diagnóstico optou-se pela descompressão das lesões maiores e enucleação das menores. Conclusão: O diagnostico clinico para a síndrome de Gorlin-Goltz baseado nos critérios maiores e menores se mostrou eficaz para definição do caso apresentado.Descritores: Diagnostico; Síndrome do Nevo Basocelular; Patologia.ReferênciasNeville BW, Allen CM, Damm DD, Bouquot JE.
