Clinical and molecular spectrum of mucopolysaccharidosis IVA in Iraqi children: Allele-specific genotype–phenotype trends and novel GALNS variants

This first Iraqi cohort expands the <i>GALNS</i> variant spectrum and highlights persistent diagnostic delays despite early clinical manifestations. Early molecular confirmation, establishment of national registries, and multidisciplinary surveillance are essential to reduce long-term morbidity.
