Resumo
O objetivo deste artigo é descrever e discutir, com base na literatura atual, um caso de um paciente jovem com síndrome de Gorlin-Goltz (SGG), destacando a abordagem terapêutica e o desafio representado pela alta taxa de recidiva dos queratocistos odontogênicos (QO) na SGG. Apresentamos um paciente de 19 anos com SGG e múltiplos QOs tratados por meio de descompressão, enucleação e tratamento da cavidade com solução de Carnoy modificada (SCM). Três anos depois, o paciente retornou devido à recidiva de QOs, e uma nova abordagem foi adotada: enucleação e tratamento da cavidade com SCM para o QO de menor tamanho, enquanto a descompressão foi realizada para o QO de maior tamanho. Atualmente, a conduta clínica frente aos QOs não varia entre indivíduos com e sem SGG, apesar das diferenças clínicas e moleculares. Assim, destacamos a necessidade de estabelecer um tratamento específico para os QOs em pacientes com SGG, considerando os fármacos inibidores da via Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) como uma terapia adjuvante.
