Gorlin Syndrome, also known as Nevoid Basal Cell Carcinoma Syndrome (NBCCS), is a rare genetic disorder that predisposes individuals to multiple forms of cancer, particularly basal cell carcinoma. This syndrome is caused by mutations in the PTCH1, PTCH2, or SUFU genes, which play a crucial role in the Hedgehog signaling pathway, important for cell growth and differentiation.
