Hurler syndrome (Mucopolysaccharidosis type I).
To cite: Grech R, Galvin L, O’Hare A, et al. BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/bcr-2012008148 DESCRIPTION Hurler syndrome is a rare lysosomal storage disorder with a prevalence of 1 in 100 000. It is caused by a defective IDUA gene which codes for α-L iduronidase and has an autosomal recessive inheritance. Enzyme deficiency results in accumulation of der...
متن کاملOnce in a Blue Moon, a Very Rare Coexistence of Glutaric Acidemia Type I and Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IIIB in a Patient
Background: GAI and MPSIIIB are two rare genetic disorders caused by pathogenic variants in two different genes. Here, we report a coexistence of these two different rare disorders in an individual. Methods: A four-year-old Iranian boy born to first-cousin parents suspected to have MPSIIIB and/or GAI was investigated in this study. Targeted genomic enrichment and NGS were used to examine genes ...
متن کاملOpen issues in Mucopolysaccharidosis type I-Hurler
Mucopolysaccharidosis I-Hurler (MPS I-H) is the most severe form of a metabolic genetic disease caused by mutations of IDUA gene encoding the lysosomal α-L-iduronidase enzyme. MPS I-H is a rare, life-threatening disease, evolving in multisystem morbidity including progressive neurological disease, upper airway obstruction, skeletal deformity and cardiomyopathy. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cel...
متن کاملLaronidase for treating mucopolysaccharidosis type I.
Mucopolysaccharidoses are a group of inherited metabolic diseases caused by the absence or deficiency of the lysosomal enzymes that are needed for breaking down glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Over time, GAGs collect in cells, blood and connective tissues, and increased amounts are excreted in the urine. The result is permanent and includes progressive cell damage that affects the individual's appea...
متن کاملVisual Dysfunction of Type I and VI Mucopolysaccharidosis Patients Evaluated with Visual Evoked Cortical Potential
PURPOSE To evaluate the visual system of patients suffering from type I or VI mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) by recording the visual evoked cortical potential (VECP). METHODS Two patients with MPS VI and 2 patients with MPS I were tested before and after enzyme replacement therapy (ERT). A control group of 20 subjects was tested for statistical comparison. VECP was elicited by monocular stimulat...
