ABSTRACT

We present here an interesting case of mucopolysaccharidoses, which is not commonly seen in medical practice, specifically a Hunter syndrome. This presentation is done in order to make known to students and health professionals, through photos, the physical characteristics of the patient with such syndrome. This patient arrived malnourished at the hospital, he was operated on the umbilical hernia and improved his nutritional status by compensating for his liver disease. This patient had medical discharge in better conditions.
