Summary Two patients are reported in whom early‐onset, distal papules with a histopathological diagnosis of basal cell carcinoma were the first manifestation of Gorlin syndrome ( GS ). These lesions showed no progression and remained stable through follow‐up. Two different PTCH 1 gene mutations were detected in the two patients, and thus a phenotype–genotype correlation of this manifestation of GS was not possible.
