“…However, the syndrome has varied clinical phenotypes and given the potential for age‐related penetrance, the diagnosis can often be delayed. Genetic testing can aid in the diagnosis of BCNS and typically includes evaluation of the PTCH1 gene, which can cost as much as $1000 6 . The addition of SUFU and PTCH2 gene analyses may increase this cost.…”

“…El síndrome de Gorlin -Goltz (SG) o síndrome de nevo de células basales, trastorno autosómico dominante que afecta a la piel, ojos, huesos y sistema nervioso; que desarrollara múltiples CBC. En él se han identificado varias mutaciones de la línea germinal que afectan al gen patched 1 (PTCH1) en el cromosoma 9q22.3 -q316; este gen es importante en la carcinogénesis de CBC y otros tumores [3,4,13].…”

“…Esto se explica porque el gen PTCH1 está alterado en 65% de los casos, es decir, pueden estar alterados otros componentes de la vía SHH como: PTCH 2, SUFU, GLI, SMOTH. 13 Evans y colaboradores primero establecieron criterios mayores y menores para el diagnóstico del síndrome y luego fueron modificados por Kimonis y su equipo en 2004. 14 Para el diagnóstico del síndrome es necesario que se cumplan dos criterios mayores, o uno mayor y dos menores.…”
