“…Insufficient enzyme delivery to poorly vascularized tissues is thought to account for musculoskeletal deterioration after transplantation, similar to that of untreated children (Weisstein et al 2004;Aldenhoven 2008). Although HSCT may improve ventricular hypertrophy and ventricular function, cardiac valve disease persists , and hearing impairment, persistent corneal clouding, and noninfectious pulmonary complications (e.g., diffuse alveolar hemorrhage, idiopathic pneumonia syndrome) after transplantation are also common (Souillet et al 2003;Kharbanda et al 2006). Therefore, these patients require close follow-up consisting of at least annual assessment by a multidisciplinary team with experience treating children with MPS I (Muenzer et al 2009).…”

“…Since enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) is not capable of crossing the blood-brain barrier, HSC transplantation is the treatment of choice for Hurler syndrome. Clinical outcomes include reversal of organomegaly, preservation of neurocognitive development, and improved hearing, vision, and cardiopulmonary function in most transplanted patients (Guffon et al 1998;Whitley et al 1993;Shapiro et al 1995;Peters et al 1996;Vellodi et al 1997;Peters et al 1998;Souillet et al 2003;Aldenhoven et al 2008;Malm et al 2008). However, outcomes are highly variable, and manifestations in certain organ systems continue to progress.…”

“…Remarkably low GVHD rates were reported in spite of the fact that the median age at transplantation was 25 months. 13 Boelens et al 14 retrospectively analyzed data of 146 MPS IH patients who were retrieved from the European Blood and Marrow Transplantation database. This very thorough report retrospectively identified T-cell depletion of the graft and reduced-intensity regimens with an increased rate of graft failure.…”
