[Laurence-Moon-Bardet-Biedl syndrome and endometrial carcinoma]

Report on a classical Laurence-Moon-Bardet-Biedl-syndrome (LMBB-Syndrome). After a 9 (to 10) year-period of irregular bleedings caused by proved monophasic menstrual cycles and Stein-Leventhal-syndrome an endometrial adenocarcinoma arose in the 23 old patient. The possible carcinogenesis by virtue of an extraglandular oestrogen-(oestron-) production is discussed. The frequently observed nephropathy is often a decisive factor in morbidity and letyality of the LMBB-syndrome.
