To the best of our knowledge, we present for the first time the bone scintigraphy findings of a patient with Morquio's syndrome.
A 46-year-old Caucasian man with Morquio's syndrome presented with lower back pain six weeks after a left total hip replacement. A whole body bone scan demonstrated an anthropomorphic skeletal pattern consistent with a mucopolysaccharide storage disease, thereby showing the cause of the patient's pain.
To the best of our knowledge, the bone scintigraphy findings of a case of Morquio's syndrome have never before been published. We present our case report to add to the knowledge we have of this rare disease.
据我们所知,我们首次展示了一名患有黏多糖贮积症Ⅳ型(Morquio综合征)患者的骨闪烁显像结果。
一名46岁患有黏多糖贮积症Ⅳ型的白人男性,在左全髋关节置换术后六周出现下背部疼痛。全身骨扫描显示出与黏多糖贮积症相符的人体骨骼模式,从而揭示了患者疼痛的原因。
据我们所知,此前从未发表过黏多糖贮积症Ⅳ型病例的骨闪烁显像结果。我们呈现此病例报告以增加我们对这种罕见疾病的了解。
