Title: [Basal cell nevus]. Author: Häfliger W, Chausse JM, Richter M. Journal: Swiss Dent; 1990 Mar; 11(3):33-7. PubMed ID: 2114674. Abstract: The main features of the nevoid basal cell syndrome, also called Gorlin-Goltz-syndrome, are basal cell nevi, jaw cysts, anomalies of the vertebras and ribs, and intracerebral calcifications. The diagnosis is often incidentally made by discovery of bilateral jaw cysts, as it was in the case of our patient and her family. The therapy is the complete enucleation of the cyst. The cavity is filled with homologous cancellous bone graft. Recurrence and little cysts are treated with the solution of Carnoy eliminating remaining microcysts.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
