Abstract

Introduction: Gorlin-Goltz syndrome (GGS) is a genetic disorder characterized by basal cell carcinomas, odontogenic keratocysts (OCK) and skeletal anomalies. Clinical case: An 11-year-old male who presents with a painless tumor in the left maxillary region, with a family history of GGS. Physical examination revealed a tumor measuring 3 cm in diameter. The CT scan shows a tumor occupying the maxillary sinus. Endoscopic sinonasal surgery was performed for biopsy, resulting in an OKC. Discussion: GGS is a rare entity; within its clinical presentation are OKCs, which are difficult to diagnose and require aggressive surgical management to avoid recurrence. Conclusion: Early disease detection makes it possible to analyze other clinical manifestations, such as OKC early.
