Diagnosis and Management of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II (Hunter Syndrome) in Poland [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II; also known as Hunter syndrome) is a rare, inherited lysosomal storage disease. The disease is caused by deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme iduronate-2-sulphatase (I2S) due to mutations in the IDS gene, which leads ...
