An ano-cutaneous fistula associated with a Bardet-Biedl syndrome in a 12-year old African boy is described. The patient presented with mental retardation, obesity, syndactyly, polydactyly, retinitis pigmentosa and hypogenitalism. Past history revealed that he had an imperforated anus with anocutaneous fistula at birth, which was repaired successfully. The the best of our knowledge, it is the first case described in the African literature.
