Abstract
|
|
|
Basal cell nevus syndrome is a rare inherited disorder characterized by mulitple cutaneous basal cell carcinoma, pits of the palms and soles, cysts of the jaws, skeletal abnormalities and ectopic calcifications. Currently there are new lines of investigation based on biomolecular studies, which aim at identifying the molecules responsible for these cysts and thus early allowing an early diagnosis of these patients. We report a case of a 9-year-old boy with the various manifestation of basal cell nevus syndrome, which are multiple odontogenic keratocysts, pits of the soles, bifid ribs, ectopic calcification, macrocephaly, and hypertelorism, etc. Total five odontogenic keratocysts were found. For the reduction of the size of the odon-togenic keratocysts, following preoperative marsupialization, there were surgically enucleated. And the impacted upper right lateral incisor and canine are tracted orthodontically.
