Abstract
Alström syndrome (AS) is a ciliopathy and an uncommon cause of syndromic retinal dystrophy. This case reports findings in a 5-year-old boy with severe early onset retinal dystrophy, and how the recognition of extraocular features with genetic analysis led to the correct diagnosis of AS after 4 years of investigation.Entities:
