Clinical and genetic profiling of nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome in Korean patients by whole-exome sequencing

Abstract Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS) is mainly characterised by multiple basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) caused by PTCH1, PTCH2, and SUFU. However, clinical and genetic data on Asian NBCCS patients are limited. We aimed to analyse the clinical phenotypes and genetic spectrum of Korean...
