The Bardet–Biedl syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disease of the group of ciliopathies with polymorphic clinical symptoms including the retinal degeneration, obesity, polydactyly, mental retardation, hypogonadism, and renal dysfunction. The Pleiotropic effects are caused by the defects in genes encoding the proteins responsible for the functioning of cilia. The Article addresses the issues of the clinical features, diagnosis, differential diagnosis and treatment of this disease. The clinical case demonstrates the patient with Bardet–Biedl syndrome, manifested by the retinal degeneration, obesity, brachydactylia, syndactyly and clinodactyly, hypogenitalism, mental retardation and concomitant hypothyroidism. As per results of the molecular genetic testing, the child was found having the mutations in exon 2 of BBS10 gene c.271dupT and c.583G> A (p.G180E) in the compound heterozygous condition, inherited from the father and mother, respectively, that are the healthy carriers.
