Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation for mucopolysaccharidosis type VII: A case report.
Pediatric Transplantation 2018 November
Mucopolysaccharidosis type VII (MPS VII) is an inherited disease characterized by the cellular accumulation of undegraded GAGs due to the deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme β-glucuronidase. We describe a case of a 2-year-old female affected by a moderate form of MPS VII and submitted twice to HSCT with the aim of stabilizing skeletal problems and preventing neurocognitive alterations. The child underwent a second transplantation due to the rejection of the graft after a reduced-intensity conditioning in the first transplant. A myeloablative regimen allowed to achieve a stable full donor engraftment and normal enzyme levels during the 6 years of follow-up. Clinically, we observed stabilization of skeletal deformities and normal neurocognitive development. This is one of the few reports of mucopolysaccharidosis type VII treated with allogeneic HSCT.
