Simpson-Golabi-Behmel Syndrome (SGBS) is an X-linked overgrowth syndrome characterized by pre- and post-natal overgrowth, typical facial appearance and multiple visceral, skeletal, and neurological anomalies. There is only few information in the current literature, on clinical and particularly dentofacial findings due to recent identification of the syndrome and its clinical overlap with other overgrowth syndromes. The aim of this case report is to present dentofacial findings in a 16-year-old boy who had been diagnosed with SGBS. Following comprehensive clinical, radiographic and histopathological examinations, six pathologically distinct lesions including odontogenic keratocyst, ameloblastoma, lateral periodontal cyst, dentigerous cyst and mucous retention cyst in both mandible and maxilla were identified. The clinical report is followed by a discussion aimed to clarify unique features of this condition and how practitioners should consider similar cases. (C) 2018 Published by Elsevier Masson SAS.
