Abstract : Laurence-Moon-Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (LMBBS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by multisystem involvement, primarily affecting vision, cognition, endocrine, renal, and skeletal systems. Here, we present a case of a 29-year-old male diagnosed with LMBBS who also exhibited features of chronic liver disease (CLD), an association not commonly reported. This case highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary approach for managing LMBBS patients and the potential implications of hepatic involvement.

Keywords : Laurence-Moon-Bardet-Biedl Syndrome, Chronic Liver Disease, Hepatic Fibrosis, Autosomal Recessive, Multisystem Disorder.
