A Rare Case Report: Mucopoly-Saccharidosis (Hurler Syndrome) With Rachitic Changes In A Nigerian

An unusual presentation of mucopolysacharidosis (Hurler' s syndrome), a connective tissue enzyme deficiency disorder with rickets is presented. It was seen in a 3 year old female child. Though facilities to confirm the metabolite in urine were not available, the radiological changes appeared pathognomonic for Hurler Syndrome. They also showed the features of rickets.

Abstract

An unusual presentation of mucopolysacharidosis (Hurler' s syndrome), a connective tissue enzyme deficiency disorder with rickets is presented. It was seen in a 3 year old female child. Though facilities to confirm the metabolite in urine were not available, the radiological changes appeared pathognomonic for Hurler Syndrome. They also showed the features of rickets.
