Abstract

Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) comprise a group of disorders characterized by progressive lysosomal accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAG). Type I MPS is a complex and progressive disease that affects multiple organs, with a high number of mutations. In patients with MPS I the phenotype varies from Hurler syndrome, the most severe disease, the intermediate type of Hurler-Scheie and attenuated Scheie‘s disease. The most frequent musculoskeletal disorders include articular contractures, multiplex dysostosis, carpal tunnel syndrome, spinal affection, and others. pGALS (pediatric, gait, arms, legs, and spine) is a useful assessment tool to detect joint anomalies in children, identifying MPS suspicions for early diagnosis and treatment.
