Abstract
Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by a diverse clinical presentation, which includes developmental abnormalities and tumorigenesis that can impact multiple organ systems. Basal cell carcinoma is the most common and characteristic clinical presentation in patients with NBCCS. There are three identified causative genes for this disease, the PTCH1 gene located at 9q22-31, the PTCH2 gene at 1p32-34, and the SUFU gene at 10q24.32. In this paper, we report a case of multiple nevoid basal cell carcinoma. The mutated gene in this patient was determined to be the ELP1 gene located on chromosome 9. This patient's ELP1 gene mutation may contribute to the development of multiple nevoid basal cell carcinomas on the face.
