Article Abstract
Considering the advances made on mucopolysaccharidosis type I after the consensus study published by a group of experts in Argentina in 2008, recommendations about genetic testing, cardiological follow-up, airway care, hearing impairment detection, spinal and neurological conditions, as well as current treatments, were reviewed. Emphasis was placed on the need for early diagnosis and treatment, as well as an interdisciplinary follow-up.

Sanfilippo syndrome (mucopolysaccharidosis type III, MPSIII) causes childhood dementia, while Alzheimer's disease is the most common type of adult-onset dementia. There is no cure for either of these diseases, and therapeutic options are extremely limited. Increasing evidence suggests commonalities in the pathogenesis of these diseases.

Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) comprises a group of inherited metabolic diseases. Each MPS type is caused by a deficiency in the activity of one kind of enzymes involved in glycosaminoglycan (GAG) degradation, resulting from the presence of pathogenic variant(s) of the corresponding gene. All types/subtypes of MPS, which are classified on the basis of all kinds of defective enzymes and accumulated GAG(s), are severe diseases.
