Cervicothoracic Myelopathy in Children With Morquio Syndrome A: A Report of 4 Cases

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 2014
Craniovertebral junction anomalies and C1-C2 instability resulting in myelopathy have been well described in the literature on mucopolysaccharidosis IV (MPS-IV). Spinal involvement in MPS-IV patients, with neurological impairment, other than atlanto-axial instability and thoracolumbar kyphosis, has been scarcely mentioned in the literature ...

Intraoperative Neuromonitoring Assists in Detecting Positioning-Associated Ischemia in Non-Spine Surgery in Morquio Syndrome: A Case Report.

A&A practice
Morquio syndrome, a lysosomal storage disease, is associated with an increased risk of spinal cord ischemia with positioning changes.1 Though uncommon in non-spine surgeries, intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) can facilitate prompt detection of ...

A Case of Morquio-Brailford Syndrome

British Journal of Psychiatry, 1964
The principal clinical features of this rare, familial disease are the triad of skeletal deformities, structural anomalies of the cardiovascular system, and mental subnormality.The syndrome is attributed to a recessive gene, and Morquio (1929) held the view that the underlying pathology consisted of mucoid changes occurring in the cartilages in place ...

Cervical kyphotic myelopathy in a child with Morquio syndrome

Child's Nervous System, 1996
A child with Morquio syndrome developed severe cervical kyphosis causing myelopathy. Decompression of the spinal cord was accomplished by an anterior approach using multilevel corpectomies and stabilization with calvarial bone grafts and halo immobilization.

Morquio B syndrome: A primary defect in β‐galactosidase

American Journal of Medical Genetics, 1983
AbstractFibroblasts from patients with Morquio B syndrome contain normal numbers of β‐galactosidase molecules with normal turnover but strongly reduced activity per enzyme molecule. Various substrate affinities are abnormal: the KM for methylum belliferyl (MU)‐β‐galactoside is 4–10‐fold elevated and affinity for keratan sulphate and oligosaccharides ...

A review of Morquio syndrome.

American journal of orthopedics (Belle Mead, N.J.), 1997
Morquio syndrome is one of the mucopolysaccharidoses. Glycosaminoglycans accumulate within the cells, leading to many systemic alterations. Alterations in connective tissue and cartilage ground substance result in abnormal formation and growth of the skeletal system.
