Case report of endoprosthesis -Y implantation in severe respiratory failure in the MPSII patient; comparison with literature data

Abstract: Background: The tracheobronchomalacia is a life-threatening complication of mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) without known effective, optimal treatment. The severe expiratory collapse of the trachea and bronchi is one of causes of the high rate of deaths in the course of airway impairment in MPSII patients. Case presentation: Due to the adynamic tracheobronchomalacia despite of enzymatic treatment (ERT) in our MPSII patient, a life-saving tracheal bifurcated type-Y endoprosthesis (a self-expanding, metal stent for … Show more

“…Antón-Pacheco et al used stenting treatment in one patient with MPS type IVA [ 35 ], but details of the stenting material and long-term outcomes of this case were not presented in the study report. Metallic balloon-expandable stents have been applied in MPS type II and type VI patients [ 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 ]. However, most patients had only short-term benefits from this type of stent, and their responses were complicated by considerable granulation formation due to mucosal inflammation and GAGs deposition [ 37 , 38 ].…”
