ABSTRACT

Fabry disease is a lysosomal storage disease due to deficiency of the enzyme acid α-Galactosidase, which hydrolysis of globotriaosylceramide, causing its accumulation in cells and body tissues. Most males with classic phenotype have angiokeratoma, acroparesthesias, hypohidrosis and cornea verticilata childhood-onset, and have a marked decrease in life span, death occurs between the fourth and fifth decade of life secondary to renal, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications. Carriers female have a wide spectrum of disease severity, from asymptomatic to the presentation of characteristic symptoms as men. Currently, the treatment is enzyme replacement therapy. The aim of this paper is to present a current perspective and advances in Fabry disease.
