Septal Myectomy in Patients with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and Nonclassical Anderson–Fabry Disease [PDF]
Anderson–Fabry disease (AFD) results from decreased enzyme activity of lysosomal enzymes and intralysosomal storage of nonhydrolyzed forms. Cardiovascular complications, mainly in the form of HCM, contribute substantially to AFD patient mortality.

Anderson–Fabry Disease Homozygosity: Rare Case of Late-Onset Variant
Anderson–Fabry Disease (AFD) is a rare, X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by a mutation in the α-Galactosidase A gene resulting in α-Galactosidase A enzyme (α-Gal A) deficiency.
