Damage of the cardiovascular system in lysosomal storage disease - mucopolysaccharidosis.

The analysis of literature data reflecting the issues of the pathology of the cardiovascular system in mucopolysaccharidosis are presented. It was found out that heart and vessels damage is one of the cardinal signs of this pathology, often leading to death. Cardiac pathology is recorded in all types of mucopolysaccharidosis, but it is most significant for patients with three clinical variants of Hurler syndrome, Hunter, and Maroteaux-Lamy syndromes.
