Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (morquio syndrome): A clinical review

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 1995
SummaryPatients with MPS IV have a clinical disorder quite different from other MPS conditions. The major treatment issue revolves around the prevention of cervical myelopathy, although the other aspects of this multisystem disease should not be forgotten.

Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA: Evidence of primary and secondary central nervous system involvement

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, 2014
AbstractMucopolysaccharidosis type IVA is a rare lysosomal storage disease caused by a deficiency of N‐acetylgalactosamine 6‐sulfatase. Studies usually focus on skeletal abnormalities and their consequences. This study explores the neurological manifestations in a cohort of mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA patients, with a detailed focus on brain and ...

Molecular characterization of mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA patients in the Andean region of Colombia

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, 2021
AbstractColombia has a high prevalence of mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) type IVA. Nevertheless, data regarding the mutation spectrum for MPS IVA in this population have not been completely characterized. Forty‐seven families and 53 patients from seven different Colombian regions were tested for MPS IVA mutations.

Hip morphology in mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA through radiograph, magnetic resonance imaging and arthrogram assessment

International Orthopaedics, 2020
This study examined the hip morphology of paediatric patients with mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) type IVA (MPS IVA).This was a retrospective chart review of 42 hips in 21 children with MPS IVA. Pelvic radiographs and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of 42 hips and arthrograms of 13 hips were analysed.

Mutation analysis and pathogenicity identification of Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA in 8 south China families

Gene, 2019
Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (MPS IVA) is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by GALNS gene mutation. The aim of our study is to detect pathogenic variants for patients suspected of MPS IVA and set the base for subsequent prenatal diagnosis and preimplantation genetic diagnosis.In our study, 9 MPS IVA patients from south ...

Vessel shape alterations of the vertebrobasilar arteries in Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVa (Morquio A) patients

European Journal of Radiology, 2017
Main symptom of mucopolysaccharidosis type IVa (MPS IVa) is progressive systemic skeletal dysplasia. This is routinely monitored by cerebral and spinal MRI. The vascular system is generally not in the primary focus of interest. In our population of MPS IVa patients we observed vessel shape alterations of the vertebrobasilar arteries, which has not been
