Novel Compound Heterozygous BBS2 and Homozygous MKKS Variants Detected in Chinese Families with Bardet–Biedl Syndrome
Background. Bardet–Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a rare multisystem developmental disorder. In this study, we report the genetic causes and clinical manifestations in two Chinese families with BBS. Materials and Methods. Two families were recruited in this study. Family A was a four-generation family with...
