Angiokeratoma corporis diffusum (Morbus Fabry)

Abstract: In a 35-year-old man with the full picture of Fabry's disease there was an almost fourfold increase of trihexosylceramide concentration in plasma and a decrease in the alpha-galactosidase activity to 13 percent as compared with the values from a control group. Using the same biochemical methods it could be shown that two nephews of the patient are hemizygote carriers and that two sisters and the mother of the patient are heterozygote carriers. Causative treatment of the disease is unknown. In this patient t… Show more

“…The method described allows the diagnostic detection of elevated sphingolipids in lipidpses like morbus Fabry (13) and permits further clinical investigations of glycosphingolipid metabolism (4,5). The advantage of this method in clinical investigation is the small plasma volume needed and the estimation of the carbohydrate parts without application of the irritable arid time consuming procedure of gas chromatography.…”
