Abstract
The association of cutaneous and extracutaneous abnormalities is a common phenomenon, widely described in a variety of genetic syndromes. Nevertheless, yet undescribed syndromic combinations may still exist. Herein we present a case report of a patient who was admitted to the Dermatology Department due to multiple basal cell carcinomas arising from nevus sebaceous. In addition to the cutaneous malignancies, the patient presented with palmoplantar keratoderma, prurigo nodularis, hypothyroidism, multiple lumbar abnormalities, uterine myoma, an ovarian cyst, and highly dysplastic colon adenoma. Such a combination of multiple disorders may indicate a genetic origin of the diseases.

Acta Dermatovenerologica Croatica (ADC) aims to provide dermatovenerologists with up-to-date information on all aspects of the diagnosis and management of skin and venereal diseases. Accepted articles regularly include original scientific articles, short scientific communications, clinical articles, case reports, reviews, reports, news and correspondence. ADC is guided by a distinguished, international editorial board and encourages approach to continuing medical education for dermatovenerologists.
