Anderson-Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by abnormalities of the GLA gene, which encodes the enzyme α-galactosidase A. A deficiency of this enzyme leads to the lysosomal accumulation of glycosphingolipids, which may cause ...

Ileocecal appendix involvement in fabry disease mimicking an acute abdomen [PDF]
Anderson-Fabry disease (AFD) is a rare, X-linked, lysosomal storage disorder due to a deficiency of alphagalactosidase A. The direct consequence is a lipid storage with the accumulation of glycosphingolipids throughout the body.

Histopathological findings in renal biopsies in Anderson–Fabry disease. Case series
Anderson–Fabry disease is the second most common lysosomal storage disease after Gaucher disease. It is an X-linked lysosomal disorder that causes a deficiency in alpha-galactosidase, leading to the accumulation of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) in the ...

Cardiac Anderson-Fabry disease: Lessons from a 25-year-follow up
Sarcomeric hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common genetic cause of unexplained left ventricular hypertrophy and has no specific treatment. Anderson-Fabry disease (AFD) is rare and usually multisystemic, but occasionally expresses clinically

Prevalence of Anderson-Fabry disease in male patients with late onset hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Background-Although studies have suggested that "late-onset" hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) may be caused by sarcomeric protein gene mutations, the cause of HCM in the majority of patients is unknown.
