Abstract
Laurence-Moon-Biedl syndrome is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder, which was by five cardinal criteria: pigmentary retinopathy, obesity, polydactyly or syndactyly, mental retardation and hypogenitalism. We present two cases of young female patients who had all five cardinal criteria. Besides retinitis pigmentosa, they were also found to have exotropia and myopic astigmatism. Intravenous pyelography found dilatation of renal calyces, though the renal function was normal. One case had diabetes mellitus and the other had slight hypopituitarism.
