Abstract


OBJECTIVE: To review the literature and present a case of Gorlin´s syndrome with situs inversus. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: Together with the major features, a great number of processes considered as minor features have also been described in the Gorlin´s syndrome. The latter includes numerous skeletal, dermatology related and neurological anomalies among others. In the present clinical case many criteria allowed a diagnosis of Gorlin´s syndrome, but for the first time this unique finding of situs inversus is seen with this syndrome. CONCLUSION: However, further research is needed to confirm the association between situs inversus and Gorlin´s syndrome.
