Key Points

This research aims to expand the understanding of mutations in the CYLD gene related to multiple familial trichoepithelioma (MFT).
Analyzed gene variants in 41 patients with multiple familial trichoepithelioma.
Identified novel and recurrent variants in the CYLD gene.
Expanded the current database of CYLD variants.
Identified six novel and three recurrent pathogenic variants in the CYLD gene.

Abstract

This study identified six novel and three recurrent pathogenic variants in the CYLD gene among 41 patients with MFT. Comprising the largest sample size report in this field to date, this work considerably expands the mutational spectrum of the CYLD gene (currently comprising 144 variants) and carries important implications for genetic counseling.
