Abstract

Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome is a genodermatosis with autosomal dominant inheritance. Its clinical findings include multiple basal cell carcinomas, jaw cysts, pitting of the hands and feet, skeletal abnormalities, ectopic calcifications, and other less common abnormalities. We describe the development of pedunculated papules in a child with a clinical appearance of acrochordons that when removed showed basal cell carcinoma. These findings suggest that acrochordon in a child may be a sign leading to early diagnosis and deserve biopsy. (Turkderm 2010; 44: 96-8) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
