Hereditary spastic paraparesis in adults associated with inborn errors of metabolism: a diagnostic approach.

abstract：:Fabry disease is an inherited lysosomal storage disease caused by deficiency of alpha-galactosidase A. Enzyme replacement therapy for this multisystem progressive disease has been available only since 2001. We here report the first known successful pregnancy of a female patient receiving such therapy. ...
