Summary
Background. Laurence-Moon-Biedl-Bardet syndrome is an autosomal recessive condition characterised by mental retardation, retinitis pigmentosa, hypogonadism, obesity, and polydactyly.
Case report. A 21-year-old woman with Laurence-Moon-Biedl-Bardet syndrome was presented for a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. She was diabetic, hypertensive, obese, and mentally retarded. Anaesthesia was induced with thiopentone and fentanyl and maintained with sevoflurane. Rocuronium bromide was used for muscle relaxation. Surgery and anaesthesia were uneventful.
Discussion. Although no complication occurred in this case, patients with Laurence-Moon-Biedl-Bardet syndrome may present a serious challenge for the anaesthesiologist. Hypertension and obesity, characteristic of the syndrome, can complicate even a simple case.
