Abstract:
Joubert syndrome (JS) is a rare genetic disorder usually diagnosed during childhood. Adult Joubert syndrome is rare, and that too in siblings from a non-consanguineous marriage in their adulthood is extremely rare, with very few cases reported worldwide. The need for expensive imaging modality to aid diagnosis has also been cited as a drawback in diagnosing the condition in resource-poor areas. We describe the case of two adult siblings who came for other diseases and were diagnosed with Joubert syndrome.
