ARANGO-SALGADO, ANDREA; ARROYAVE-SIERRA, JUAN ESTEBAN e RUIZ-SUAREZ, ANA CRISTINA. Gorlin syndrome. About a case. CES Med. [online]. 2013, vol.27, n.1, pp.77-82. ISSN 0120-8705.
We present the case of a 73 year old man with a six month history of an ulcerated, painful, and erythematous nodule in the left inner thigh. He presented with multiple pigmented shined plates in his bod and palmar and plantar pits. Microscopic evaluation revealed a basal cell carcinoma of nodular adenoid and pigmented subtype. In his chest and maxillary X rays no abnormalities were seen. Based on clinical and histological findings a diagnosis of a basal cell nevus syndrome was made. Basal cell nevus syndrome is an autosomal dominant disease, uncommon, identified based on clinical criteria, early and appropriate diagnosis is essential in order to prevent tissue destruction.
