Identification of NSDHL Mutations Associated with CHILD Syndrome in Oral Verruciform Xanthoma

ConclusionNSDHL gene mutations associated with CHILD Syndrome are common in sporadic oral VX cases suggesting that these mutations confer a greater risk for developing epithelial barrier defects that promote recurrent oral VX lesions and the potential for direct germline transmission of oral VX susceptibility.
