A síndrome de Laurence-Moon (SLM) é um transtorno genético caracterizado por manifestações neurológicas, oftalmológicas e endócrinas progressivas que levam a incapacidade grave. A SLM é algumas vezes referida como síndrome de Laurence-Moon-Biedl ou síndrome de Laurence-Moon-Bardet-Biedl. As diferenças entre a síndrome de Bardet-Biedl (SBB) e a SLM não foram claramente definidas. A ausência de obesidade na SLM e a presença de polidactilia na SBB podem permitir a distinção das duas doenças, mas a ocorrência dessas duas manifestações na SBB é variável. | |||
