Scheie syndrome


Schei·e syn·drome

(shā), [MIM*252800] allelic to Hurler syndrome but with a much milder phenotype; characterized by α-l-iduronidase deficiency, corneal clouding, deformity of the hands, aortic valve involvement, and normal intelligence; autosomal recessive inheritance, caused by mutation in the alpha-l-iduronidase gene (IUDA) on chromosome 4p. Synonym(s): mucopolysaccharidosis type IS

Scheie syndrome

(shī)n. A type of mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS IH) characterized by the presence of dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate in the urine, corneal clouding, deformity of the hands, and stiff joints.

Scheie syndrome

Alpha-l-iduronidase deficiency, mucopolysaccharidosis type IS An AR condition in which a deficit of l-iduronidase results in inefficient degradation and intracellular accumulation of mucopolysaccharides; involvement is less severe than MPS type IH–Hurler syndrome Clinical SS is manifest in early childhood as short, coarse features, a broad mouth with full lips, inguinal hernias, cataracts, hepatosplenomegaly, aortic incompetence, stiff joints, with development of claw hands and deformed feet, clouding of cornea, prolonged survival Lab ↑ dermatan sulfate in urine
