Title: [A mandibular swelling]. Author: de Lange J, Norbruis OF. Journal: Ned Tijdschr Tandheelkd; 2005 Aug; 112(8):298-301. PubMed ID: 16128217. Abstract: Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS) is characterised by skeletal anomalies, cutaneous basal cell carcinomas and multiple keratocysts. NBCCS is an autosomal dominant disorder, but can have a variable phenotypic penetration. NBCCS can also arise spontaneously. The prevalence is 1:60.000 and 50-65% of patients with NBCCS have affected family members. A recently diagnosed patient is presented and the manifestations of the syndrome are discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
