Abstract :
Bardet- biedl syndrome (BBS) is a rare heterogenous autosomal
recessive disease due to defects in primary cilia which until now,
up to 21 types have been detected. A few reports of BBS in Iran
have been published but this is the first type 9 genotyped and
clinically discussed case. This type can cause severe and delayed
onset renal failure
