  • Title: [Case report of Laurence-Moon-Bardet-Biedl syndrome].
    Author: Osusky R, Alsaadi AH, Farpour H.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1991 May; 198(5):445-6. PubMed ID: 1886381.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of Laurence-Moon-Bardet-Biedl Syndrome with all five recognised features: tapetoretinal dystrophy, polydactily, obesity, mental retardation and hypogonadism. Nevertheless the correct diagnosis was delayed due to the fact, that the patient has a macular dystrophy (instead of a pigmentary retinopathy). He had an operation of the polydactily during childhood. This was not revealed at first. The case underlines the importance of an exact anamnesis of the parents.
