title: Gorlin's syndrome with associated odontogenic cysts.
abstract: Multiple maxillary and mandibular cysts are principle features of basal cell nevus syndrome (Gorlin-Goltz). We present cases from an affected family in which magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was helpful in evaluation of the cystic lesions. A middle ear anomaly was identified which may represent an additional abnormality associated with the syndrome.
