Abstract :
Niemann-Pick disease is a rare lipid storage disorder with autosomal recessive inheritance, which is characterised by the accumulation of sphingomyelin and other sphingolipids in macrophages. Kartagener’s Syndrome is a syndrome with autosomal recessive inheritance consisting of chronic paranasal sinusitis, situs inversus, and bronchiectasis. Here we reported a case having Kartagener’s Syndrome with concomitant Niemann- Pick disease, as such a case has not been reported in the literature.
