Gorlin Goltz Syndrome: A Disease in Disguise
View through CrossRef
Gorlin Goltz syndrome also known as nevoid basal cell carcinoma is an autosomal dominant inherited disorder caused due to mutation in patched (PTCH) tumor suppressor gene present in the 9q chromosome. Gorlin goltz syndrome display diversified odontogenic as well as systemic manifestations. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment is mandatory to decrease morbidity and mortality. Here we present a subtle case report of a 17-year-old boy who presented with multiple odontogenic keratocysts of the mandible and maxilla which upon further examination was diagnosed as Gorlin Goltz Syndrome.
