Background:

  • Basal cell naevus syndrome, also known as Gorlin-Goltz Syndrome, is a rare genetic disorder.
  • It is characterized by multiple basal cell carcinomas, jaw keratocysts, and skeletal abnormalities.
  • Tumorigenesis in this syndrome often involves mutations in the PTCH1 gene, affecting the Hedgehog signaling pathway.
