Abstract

Gorlin-Goltz syndrome is a rare disorder, characterized by systemic manifestations included multiple basal cell carcinomas, palmar or plantar pits, odontogenic keratocysts and ectopic calcifications of the falx cerebri.

The therapy of the clinical manifestations of Gorlin-Goltz syndrome is not simple treatment.

We performed  electrochemotherapy in a patient affected by Gorlin-Goltz syndrome with an extensive and  unresectable basal cell carcinoma on the scalp, obtaining excellent results.
