615994 | OMIM | Bardet-Biedl syndrome 17 (BBS17) | A syndrome characterized by usually severe pigmentary retinopathy, early-onset obesity, polydactyly, hypogenitalism, renal malformation and mental retardation. Secondary features include diabetes mellitus, hypertension and congenital heart disease. Bardet-Biedl syndrome inheritance is autosomal recessive, but three mutated alleles (two at one locus, and a third at a second locus) may be required for clinical manifestation of some forms of the disease. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Patients carrying LZTFL1 mutations manifest mesoaxial polydactyly, a clinical feature very uncommon for Bardet-Biedl syndrome (PubMed:22510444 and PubMed:23692385). Some patients manifest situs inversus (PubMed:22510444). |
