Abstract
|
|
|
The basal cell nevus syndrome is also known as the Gorlin-Goltz syndrom. It is a dominant autosomal disorder which is characterized by keratocystic odontogenic tumors in the jaw, skeletal abnormalities, and multiple basal cell nevi carcinomas. This study reports an 11-year-old boy with multiple odontogenic keratocysts in the jaw, hypertelorism, and frontal bossing. When a young patient has cystic lesions with an impacted permanent teeth, it is important to preserve the teeth. For a growing patient with impacted permanent teeth, a more conservative method is suggested, which will enable the preservation the permanent teeth in Gorlin-Goltz syndrome.
