Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a rare autosomal recessive ciliopathy disorder. Many BBS disease-causing genetic variants have been identified due to the advancement of molecular diagnostic tools. We report on a novel pathogenic variant in a consanguineous Pakistani family with an affected child. CASE PRESENTATION: Clinical exome sequencing was used to search for BBS causing variants in the affected...
