Preferred Label : Brooke-spiegler syndrome;

Symbol : BRSS;

CISMeF acronym : BRSS; BSS; SBS;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Spiegler-brooke syndrome; BSS; SBS;

Description : Brooke-Spiegler syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder classically characterized by the appearance of multiple skin appendage tumors such as cylindroma, trichoepithelioma, and spiradenoma. These tumors are typically located in the head and neck region, appear in early adulthood, and gradually increase in size and number throughout life (Scheinfeld et al., 2003). Because BRSS, familial cylindromatosis, and MFT1 are allelic, and because different manifestations of each have been described within a single family, many consider these disorders to represent a phenotypic spectrum of a single disease entity (Gerretsen et al., 1995; Lee et al., 2005; Bowen et al., 2005; Young et al., 2006; Saggar et al., 2008). Blake and Toro (2009) provided a review of Brooke-Spiegler syndrome and pathogenic mutations in the CYLD gene.;

Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the CYLD gene (605018.0003);

Neoplasia : Skin appendage tumors may show malignant transformation; Parotid gland adenoma and adenocarcinoma;

Prefixed ID : #605041;
