Bardet–Biedl Syndrome: Delayed Diagnosis in a 14-Year-Old Child with End-Stage Renal Disease

Abstract

Bardet–Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a rare autosomal recessive ciliopathic disorder. Because of its low prevalence and wide spectrum of clinical features, many patients remain undiagnosed. We report a case of a 14-year-old boy with a typical phenotype of BBS who remains undiagnosed until the development of end-stage renal disease.
