Síndrome del nevo de células basales - Treatment

Nombres alternativos

Síndrome del carcinoma basocelular nevoide; Síndrome de Gorlin

Tratamiento:

Es importante hacerse examinar por un dermatólogo con frecuencia, de manera que los cánceres de piel se puedan tratar mientras sean pequeños.

Las personas con esta afección también deben ser examinadas y tratadas por algunos otros especialistas, dependiendo de qué parte del cuerpo esté afectada. Por ejemplo, un especialista en cáncer (oncólogo) puede tratar tumores en el cuerpo y un cirujano ortopedista puede ayudar a tratar problemas óseos.

Pronóstico:

El control frecuente con una variedad de médicos es importante para tener un buen desenlace clínico.

Posibles complicaciones:

  • Ceguera
  • Tumor cerebral
  • Sordera
  • Fracturas
  • Tumores ováricos
  • Daño y cicatrización grave de la piel debido a cánceres cutáneos

Cuándo contactar a un profesional médico:

Solicite una cita médica si:

  • Usted o algún miembro de su familia tiene el síndrome del nevo de células basales, especialmente si está planeando tener un hijo.
  • Tiene un hijo que presente síntomas de esta afección.
