Clinical and dermatoscopic findings in Bazex-Dupré-Christol and Gorlin–Goltz syndromes

To the Editor: Gorlin–Goltz syndrome (GGS) and Bazex-Dupré-Christol syndrome (BDCS) are two genodermatoses associated with the development of multiple basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) at an early age.1,2 The clinical diagnosis of GGS is based on the presence of multiple BCCs and palmoplantar pits in association with internal abnormalities and skeletal defects. In contrast, BDCS is characterized by multiple BCCs, congenital hypotrichosis, and follicular atrophoderma. We compared the clinical and dermatoscopic features that led to the correct diagnosis in two patients presenting with multiple BCCs.
