Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II Observational
Mucopolysaccharidosis IIThis is an observational study planned to document prospectively disease manifestation and neurocognitive course in pediatric patients with a clinical presentation consistent with neuronopathic ("severe") MPS II undergoing current standard of care and/or intrathecal Elaprase® for their condition. Some patients may be offered the opportunity to screen for a gene therapy study conducted by the same sponsor.

Mucopolysaccharidosis Type 7Emergency access granted to treat a single patient with advanced Mucopolysaccharidosis Type 7 with UX003 Recombinant Human Beta-glucuronidase (rhGUS) Enzyme Replacement Therapy via IV administration every other week (QOW) for up to 144 weeks.
Non-invasive Assessment of Intraocular Pressure in MPS by Use of the Ocular Response Analyzer.
MucopolysaccharidosisFabry DiseaseThe aim of the present study is to compare intraocular pressure (IOP) values assessed with Ocular Response Analyzer to the classical gold standard of IOP measurement, to Goldmann applanation tonometry by mucopolysacchyridosis-, Fabry-patients and healthy controls. We want to investigate biomechanical characteristics of the cornea and their influence on the IOP-measurements.
A Cross-specialty Collaboration Platform for Mucopolysaccharidosis Confirmative Diagnosis
MucopolysaccharidosesIn this study the investigators is aimed to establish the MPS screening algorithm for high risk patients who had medical history of previous surgical repair or presence of inguinal and/or umbilical hernia with combination of any ENT related surgery or examination in Taiwan.

Ophthalmic Manifestations of Patients With Mucopolysaccharidosis
Ophthalmic ManifestationsMucopolysaccharidosis (MPSs) are a group of disorders caused by inherited defects in lysosomal enzymes resulting in widespread intra- and extra-cellular accumulation of glycosaminoglycan(1,2). They have been subdivided according to enzyme defect and systemic manifestations and include MPS IH (Hurler)(3) , MPS IS (Scheie), MPS IH/S (Hurler/Sheie), MPS II(4,5) (Hunter), MPS III (Sanfilippo)(6) , MPS IV (Morquio)(7,8), MPS VI (Maroteaux-Lamy)(9), MPS VII (Sly)(10,11) and MPS IX (Natowicz)(12). Mucopolysaccharidosis have a spectrum of systemic manifestations, including airway and respiratory compromise, skeletal deformities, intellectual and neurological impairment, cardiac abnormalities, gastrointestinal problems and ocular manifestations(13). Ocular manifestation are common in the mucopolysaccharidosis and may result in significant visual impairment(14). Corneal opacification of varying severity is frequently seen, as well as retinopathy, optic nerve swelling and atrophy, ocular hypertension, and glaucoma(14). New treatment modalities for the systemic manifestations of the mucopolysaccharidosis include bone marrow transplant and enzyme replacement therapy have resulted in an improved prognosis in many cases(15).
Study of Pulmonary Complications in Pediatric Patients With Storage Disorders Undergoing Allogeneic...
I Cell DiseaseFucosidosis10 moreOBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and serum obtained from pediatric patients with storage disorders prior to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for the presence of proinflammatory cytokines and for the production of nitric oxide by alveolar macrophages to identify possible risk factors for pulmonary complications. II. Investigate the underlying mechanism for the development of significant pulmonary complications in these patients during HSCT. III. Evaluate bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and serum obtained from these same patients at the time a pulmonary complication develops post-HSCT, or at 60 days post-HSCT if there has been no pulmonary complications.
