==Signs and Symptoms ==
==Overview==
'''Neurological'''  
A positive history of [[Angiokeratoma|angiokeratomas]], peripheral [[neuropathies]], gradually decreased sweating, and [[Gastrointestinal tract|gastrointestinal]] manifestations in childhood are suggestive of classic [[Fabry's disease]]. In the late-onset form of the disease [[neuropathic]] pain and gastrointestinal manifestation is not common and they may have organ-specific symptoms. 
 
==History==
 
*[[Fabry's disease]] should be considered in patients with a family history of the disease, clinical manifestations, and proven laboratory abnormalities.

* wheezing

=== '''Pathophysiology''' behind the '''earliest''' and '''most common manifestations''' of FD include the following : ===
*wheezing
 
*chronic cough
* '''Angiokeratomas-''' occurs as a result of the damage to the vascular endothelia cells with dilation of the vessels in the dermis. These clusters of reddish purple raised skin lesions increase with age.
* '''Neuropathic pain''' - Burning sensation in the extremities seen as a result of the small nerve fibres of the peripheral and somatic autonomic nervous system.Episodic crises ("Fabry crises") characterized by burning pain originating in the extremities and radiating inwards towards the limbs  and chronic pain characterized by burning and tingling paraesthesias. These episodes of pain are precipitated by fever, exercise, fatigue, stress, and sudden changes in temperature.[1]
* '''Post prandial pain and Diarrhoea''' - Involvement of the autonomic ganglia in the bowel wall and mesenteric blood vessels is responsible for the varied gastrointestinal involvement seen
* '''Arrhythmias''' - This is predominantly seen in adulthood and occurs as a result of the involvement of the conduction system and an imbalance created between sympathetic and parasympathetic systems. Ventricular arrhythmias have been indicated as a poor prognostic sign and the cause of cardiac related deaths in patients affected with FD .
* '''Microalbuminuria''' - seen as a result of deposition of Gb3 in the glomerular endothelial and mesangial cells. The damage caused to the renal tubules as a result of this deposition decreases the urine concentrating ability of the kidneys and overtime the renal function declines progressively and irreversibly.

Overview

A positive history of angiokeratomas, peripheral neuropathies, gradually decreased sweating, and gastrointestinal manifestations in childhood are suggestive of classic Fabry's disease. In the late-onset form of the disease neuropathic pain and gastrointestinal manifestation is not common and they may have organ-specific symptoms.

History

  • Fabry's disease should be considered in patients with a family history of the disease, clinical manifestations, and proven laboratory abnormalities.

Symptoms

Neurological[1]

Gastrointestinal[2]

Cardiac[3]

Skin[4]

  • Red spots on the skin (angiokeratomas): tiny, painless papules that appear at any region of the body, but are predominant on the thighs, buttocks, lower abdomen, and groin.
  • Telangiectasis
  • Decreased sweating ( hypohydriosis)

Musculoskeletal[5]

  • Osteopenia
  • Osteoporosis

Endocrine[6]

General[7]

ENT[8]

Ophthalmological[9]

Nephrology[10]

  • Impaired ability of the medullary renal tubules to concentrate the urine ( hyposthenuria)
  • Microalbuminuria, proteinuria

Respiratory[11]

  • wheezing
  • chronic cough
