Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II
Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II—Hunter syndrome) is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency in iduronate-2 sulfatase. Enzyme replacement therapy does not cross the blood–brain barrier (BBB), limiting the results in neurological ...

Clinical presentation of mucopolysaccharidosis type II (Hunter′s syndrome)
We present a rare case of mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) with a typical presentation of mental retardation and absence of corneal clouding. The purpose of presenting this case report is to highlight the distinctive manifestation of MPS (Hunter's disease) and to provide a concise report of Hunter's disease for medical practitioners with the hope that such ...
