    Area of Science:

    • Oral pathology
    • Dermatology
    • Genetics

    Background:

    • Gorlin syndrome, also known as nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome, is an uncommon autosomal dominant disorder.
    • It is characterized by a spectrum of developmental abnormalities, including multiple odontogenic keratocysts, basal cell carcinomas, and skeletal anomalies.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the literature on Gorlin syndrome.
    • To describe seven cases of Gorlin syndrome, including one with malignant transformation.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review.
    • Case series description.

    Main Results:

    • Seven cases of Gorlin syndrome were identified and described.
    • One patient developed squamous cell carcinoma within an odontogenic keratocyst of the maxilla, indicating a potential malignant transformation.

    Conclusions:

    • Gorlin syndrome is a complex condition requiring multidisciplinary management.
    • The potential for malignant transformation of odontogenic keratocysts necessitates vigilant monitoring and early intervention.
