Diagnostic test for mucopolysaccharidosis. I. Direct method for quantifying excessive urinary glycosaminoglycan excretion.
This direct method for quantifying excessive urinary glycosaminoglycan excretion exploits the specific binding of 1,9-dimethylmethylene blue (DMB). The procedure obviates cumbersome and labor-intensive procedures for separating glycosaminoglycans from other constituents of urine. Pediatric pharmaceutical formulations (except heparin), in concentrations expected in urine, do not interfere with s...
متن کاملSpinal Problems in Mucopolysaccharidosis I (
Bone-marrow transplantation has increased the survival of patients with mucopolysaccharidosis-I. We describe the spinal problems and their management in 12 patients with this disorder who have been followed up for a mean of 4.5 years since transplantation. High lumbar kyphosis was seen in ten patients which was associated with thoracic scoliosis in one. Isolated thoracic scoliosis was seen in a...

متن کاملOpen issues in Mucopolysaccharidosis type I-Hurler
Mucopolysaccharidosis I-Hurler (MPS I-H) is the most severe form of a metabolic genetic disease caused by mutations of IDUA gene encoding the lysosomal α-L-iduronidase enzyme. MPS I-H is a rare, life-threatening disease, evolving in multisystem morbidity including progressive neurological disease, upper airway obstruction, skeletal deformity and cardiomyopathy. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cel...
متن کاملAortic Root Dilatation in Mucopolysaccharidosis I–VII
The prevalence of aortic root dilatation (ARD) in mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) is not well documented. We investigated aortic root measurements in 34 MPS patients at the Children's Hospital of Orange County (CHOC). The diagnosis, treatment status, age, gender, height, weight and aortic root parameters (aortic valve annulus (AVA), sinuses of Valsalva (SoV), and sinotubular junction (STJ)) were ex...
