Galactosaemia in a Brazilian population: high incidence and cost-benefit analysis.

abstract：:Fabry disease is an X-linked inherited lysosomal storage disorder caused by an inborn deficiency of the enzyme α-galactosidase A. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with agalsidase alpha or beta isozymes is an effective treatment. Cross-reactivity of immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies with agalsidase alpha and beta has b...
