Odontogenic keratocysts of the jaws represent a hallmark feature of the syndrome and, in pediatric patients, may precede the development of other systemic symptoms. Currently, there is no consensus on whether the Marfanoid phenotype is a rare manifestation of GGS itself or a phenotypic co-occurrence of two genetically independent dysmorphologies. This study aimed to highlight the diagnostic significance of multiple jaw keratocysts in the early detection of GGS and to demonstrate a rare clinical association of GGS with Marfanoid-type undifferentiated connective tissue dysplasia in a child. We present a clinical observation of an 11-year-old female patient with recurrent multifocal cystic jaw lesions, GGS, and undifferentiated connective tissue dysplasia of the Marfanoid type. In the reported case, the presence of multifocal and recurrent cystic jaw lesions, progressing since the age of 4, led to clinical suspicion and subsequent confirmation of GGS. Genetic counseling further identified familial undifferentiated connective tissue dysplasia with a Marfanoid phenotype in the proband. Multiple odontogenic keratocysts in children serve as a critical early diagnostic marker for GGS, necessitating a multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis and management. The presented case is distinguished by the early onset of jaw cysts and the concurrent presentation of GGS with Marfanoid-type undifferentiated connective tissue dysplasia.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Синдром Горлина–Гольца (СГГ) — редкая мультисистемная патология с аутосомно-доминантным типом наследования и возрастной вариабельностью манифестации клинических проявлений. Одним из основных признаков синдрома являются одонтогенные кератокисты челюстей, которые в детском возрасте могут предшествовать развитию других симптомов заболевания. В настоящее время отсутствует единое мнение о том, является ли марфаноподобный фенотип редким проявлением самого СГГ или отражает сочетание двух генетически независимых дизморфий. Цель исследования — подчеркнуть диагностическую значимость множественных кератокист челюстей для раннего выявления СГГ, а также продемонстрировать редкое сочетание СГГ и недифференцированной дисплазии соединительной ткани марфаноподобного типа у ребёнка. Представлено клиническое наблюдение пациентки 11 лет с рецидивирующим многоочаговым кистозным поражением челюстей, СГГ и недифференцированной дисплазией соединительной ткани марфаноподобного типа. В данном клиническом случае многоочаговое рецидивирующее кистозное поражение челюстей, развивавшееся с 4-летнего возраста, послужило основанием для подозрения на СГГ с последующим подтверждением диагноза. При медико-генетическом консультировании у пробанда выявлена семейная недифференцированная дисплазия соединительной ткани марфаноподобного типа. Множественные кератокисты челюстей у детей являются значимым ранним диагностическим маркером СГГ и требуют междисциплинарного подхода к диагностике и лечению. Особенность представленного наблюдения — ранняя манифестация кист челюстей и сочетание СГГ с недифференцированной дисплазией соединительной ткани марфаноподобного типа.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Gorlin–Goltz syndrome</kwd><kwd>multiple jaw cysts</kwd><kwd>odontogenic keratocyst</kwd><kwd>early diagnosis</kwd><kwd>connective tissue dysplasia</kwd><kwd>Marfanoid phenotype</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>синдром Горлина–Гольца</kwd><kwd>множественные кисты челюстей</kwd><kwd>одонтогенная кератокиста</kwd><kwd>ранняя диагностика</kwd><kwd>дисплазия соединительной ткани</kwd><kwd>марфаноподобный фенотип</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Silva LP, Rolim LS, Silva LA, et al.
