A Case of Gorlin-Goltz Syndrome Without the Characteristic Physical Features That Was Diagnosed After the Development of a Fifth Cancer
We present a case of Gorlin-Goltz syndrome (GGS) in a patient who developed medulloblastoma, osteosarcoma, myelodysplastic syndrome, basal cell carcinoma, and odontogenic keratocyst by the age of 19 years. He had no known family history and no characteristic physical features of GGS. A frameshift mutation in the PTCH1 gene was found in the oral mucosa as a low-frequency mosaicism, basal cell carcinoma, and normal skin by whole exome sequencing of cancer susceptibility genes. Setting a therapeutic strategy with regard to second cancer development is important for pediatric cancer patients who have a background of cancer pre...

Development of a targeted gene panel for the diagnosis of Gorlin syndrome
In this study, a gene panel was developed to overcome the challenges in the diagnosis of Gorlin syndrome and allow diagnosis using a single test. A custom panel was generated for four genes associated with Gorlin syndrome: PTCH1, PTCH2, SMO, and SUFU. Twenty-seven samples from 12 patients with Gorlin syndrome and three asymptomatic blood relatives of the patients were examined.

Meningothelial Hamartoma of the Scalp in a Child With Gorlin Syndrome
In this report, we describe the case of a 3-year-old boy with Gorlin syndrome who presented with a congenital scalp lesion. Histologic examination revealed scattered islands of meningothelial cells in a background of dense fibrous and vascular tissue, in keeping with meningothelial hamartoma of the scalp. The differential diagnoses of congenital scalp lesions and the association between Gorlin syndrome and meningothelial hamartoma of the scalp are discussed.

Update from the 5th Edition of the World Health Organization Classification of Head and Neck Tumors: Familial Tumor Syndromes
AbstractThe initiative of the 5th edition of the WHO classification of the Head and Neck Tumours establishing a new section dedicated to familial/heritable tumor syndromes with tumors and lesions in the head and neck region was much needed to better understand the tumours, diseases, and associated syndromes, as well as establish recommendations for monitoring and treating these patients. (WHO Classification of Tumours Editorial Board. Head and Neck tumours. Lyon (France): International Agency for Research on Cancer; 2022.https://publications.iarc.fr/). Within the newly established chapter on genetic tumor syndromes, we hav...

Topical hedgehog inhibitors for basal cell carcinoma: how far away are we?
Expert Opin Pharmacother. 2022 Mar 8:1-2. doi: 10.1080/14656566.2022.2050215. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION: The standard treatment of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) consists of conventional excision or Mohs micrographic surgery. However, surgical excision is not feasible in specific cases, particularly in patients with several BCCs such as those with Gorlin syndrome or individuals receiving immunosuppression after solid-organ transplantation. Additionally, the geriatric population may not be appropriate candidates for surgery. Thus, alternative therapies are needed for these populations.AREAS COVERED: Hedgehog (H...

Cancer Predisposition Genetic Analysis in Children with Brain Tumors Treated at a Single Institution in Japan
Oncology. 2021 Dec 27. doi: 10.1159/000521621. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBrain tumors affect one-third of all children with cancer. Approximately 10% of children with cancer carry variants in cancer predisposition genes. However, germline analyses in large cohorts of Asian children have not been reported. Thirty-eight Japanese patients with pediatric brain tumors were included in this study (19 boys, 19 girls). DNA was extracted from the patients' peripheral blood, and cancer-associated genes were analyzed using targeted resequencing. Rare variants with allele frequencies <0.1% in the general population and variants...
