Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS), also known as Gorlin Syndrome, affects only 1 in 56 000 people. It is usually inherited from a parent with the condition and affects both males and females equally (autosomal dominant inheritance). People with NBCCS may show characteristic features such as extra fingers or toes, irregular ribs, an unusually shaped face and large head.
Nevoid Basal Cell Carcinoma Syndrome (NBCCS) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterised by developmental alterations and multiple basal cell carcinomas. Mutations in PTCH1, a membrane receptor for Sonic Hedgehog, are associated with the development of the disease.
