Both Gorlin-Goltz syndrome and Sotos syndrome are rare genetic conditions showing variable expressiveness. They both are inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. Since these conditions tend to be multisystemic disorders, the familiarity of various medical specialists with its manifestations may reduce the time necessary for providing a diagnosis, better differentiation of these two conditions, or even the co-existence of two syndromes.
