- Abstract
Along with Hurler, Scheie, Maroteaux-Lamy syndromes and mucolipidoses types II and III, they form a group of metabolic disorders associated with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) in childhood [[1]]. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and recombinant enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) are new treatment modalities that have modified disease progression [[8]]. Keywords: Mucopolysaccharidosis; Carpal tunnel syndrome EN Mucopolysaccharidosis Carpal tunnel syndrome 1651 1653 3 07/28/22 20220801 NES 220801 Introduction Hunter syndrome or mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II) is included in the group of inherited storage diseases caused by lysosomal deposition of glycosaminoglycans (GAG). Upon assessment of pediatric CTS, various etiologies must be considered other than lysosomal storage diseases such as lipofibromatous hamartoma, hemangioma, primary familial CTS, intensive sport participation, and trauma [[4]].
