Question

What are the preventive measures for pediatric basal cell nevus syndrome?

Answer

Pre-marital exams play a positive role in preventing birth defects. The effectiveness depends on the scope and content of the examination, which mainly includes serological tests (such as hepatitis B virus, syphilis, and HIV), reproductive system checks (such as cervical inflammation screening), general physical examinations (such as blood pressure and ECG), and inquiries about family medical history and personal medical history. Proper genetic counseling work should be done.
