Bardet-Biedl syndrome presenting with laryngeal web and bifid epiglottis.

BMJ Case Reports 2021 January 29
Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a rare autosomal recessive ciliopathy characterised by rod-cone dystrophy, obesity, postaxial polydactyly, cognitive impairment, hypogonadism, renal abnormalities, and rarely, laryngeal webs or bifid epiglottis. Most patients present with obesity. Multiple genes are involved in causation of BBS and there is also evidence of triallelic inheritance.

Mutation analysis revealed a homozygous variant in BBS10 gene.
