Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II) is a rare, pediatric, neurometabolic disorder due to the lack of activity of the lysosomal hydrolase iduronate 2-sulfatase (IDS), normally degrading heparan sulfate and dermatan sulfate within cell lysosomes.

A phase I/II study of intrathecal idursulfase-IT in children with severe mucopolysaccharidosis II
Purpose:Approximately two-thirds of patients with the lysosomal storage disease mucopolysaccharidosis II have progressive cognitive impairment. Intravenous (i.v.) enzyme replacement therapy does not affect cognitive impairment because recombinant ...

Osteoarthropathy in mucopolysaccharidosis type II.
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS type II, Hunter syndrome) is a rare (~ 1/1500.000), X-linked inherited disorder (affects boys) due to deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme iduronate sulfatase (Xq.28). The complex clinical picture includes osteoarthropathy with a tendency to flexion stiffness and disability.
