General anaesthesia in an adult patient with Morquio syndrome with emphasis on airway issues
Patients with Morquio syndrome possess a number of characteristics which may complicate an anaesthetic procedure. The most important is that a deposition of mucopolysaccharides in the soft tissues of the oro-pharynx distorts the airway, making the airway

Morquios Syndrome: A Rare Case Report
Morquio’s syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by deficiency of N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfate. It was first described in 1929 by Morquio and Brailsford. Morquio’s syndrome is characterized by a defect in the degradation of keratin sulfate resulting in the accumulation of mucopolysaccharides.

A case of two siblings with Morquio syndrome
Morquio syndrome (Type IV mucopolysaccharidosis) is an autosomal recessive condition with a prevalence of 1:40000 to 1:200000.1 The deficiencies of N-acetyl-galactosamine-6-sulfatase and beta-galactosidase leads to accumulation of glycosaminoglycan resulting Morquio syndrome type A and B respectively. Here, we report a case of two siblings with Morquio
