Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (Hunter syndrome) is an X-linked multisystem disorder, caused by deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase (I2S). The clinical manifestations of this disease are severe skeletal deformities, airway obstruction, cardiomyopathy, and neurologic deterioration.
The patient was 5 years and 6 months boy, with developmental delay, hearing loss, hepatosplenomegaly, and skeletal dysplasia. He was diagnosed with mucopolysaccharidosis type II based on clinical manifestations, biochemical and genetic analysis.
The patient carries a new mutation (c.879-1210_1007-218del) in hemizygosis in the gene, which was defined as pathogenic according to the 2015 American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics-Association for Molecular Pathology guidelines and as responsible for the mucopolysaccharidosis type II phenotype in the patient.
II型粘多糖贮积症(亨特综合征)是一种X连锁多系统疾病,由溶酶体酶艾杜糖醛酸-2-硫酸酯酶(I2S)缺乏引起。该疾病的临床表现为严重骨骼畸形、气道阻塞、心肌病和神经功能恶化。
患者为一名5岁6个月大的男孩,有发育迟缓、听力丧失、肝脾肿大和骨骼发育异常。根据临床表现、生化和基因分析,他被诊断为II型粘多糖贮积症。
患者在该基因中半合子携带一个新突变(c.879-1210_1007-218del),根据2015年美国医学遗传学与基因组学学会-分子病理学协会指南,该突变被定义为致病性突变,并导致患者出现II型粘多糖贮积症表型。
