This study presents three rib anomaly cases, including plus/minus variants and Gorlin-Goltz syndrome. It details genetically determined segmentation disturbances affecting rib development.

Area of Science:

Medical genetics
Developmental biology
Skeletal anomalies

Background:

Rib anomalies are rare congenital malformations.
Understanding their etiology is crucial for diagnosis and management.
Genetic factors play a significant role in skeletal development.

Observation:

Case 1: Patient with a plus variant rib anomaly.
Case 2: Patient with a minus variant rib anomaly.
Case 3: Female patient with Gorlin-Goltz syndrome exhibiting multiple rib changes.

Findings:

Gorlin-Goltz syndrome demonstrates rib anomalies as part of a genetically determined segmentation disturbance.
The presented cases highlight the diverse spectrum of rib anomalies.
These anomalies result from disruptions in embryonic development.

Implications:

Highlights the importance of genetic evaluation in patients with rib anomalies.
Contributes to the understanding of skeletal segmentation disorders.
Informs clinical practice regarding diagnosis and potential associated conditions.
