Hunter syndrome, or mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II), is a serious genetic disorder that primarily affects males. It is caused by the body's inability to break down certain elements in the body called mucopolysaccharides, also known as glycosaminoglycans or GAG. The buildup of GAG is due to a deficiency or absence of the enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase (I2S). This buildup interferes with the way certain cells and organs in the body function and leads to a number of serious symptoms.
In managing Hunter syndrome, there are many ways to help enhance you or your child's well-being. One of these is finding the right specialist with experience treating children with special needs. Another is that palliative and symptomatic treatments can help relieve pain and enhance general health. Also, staying informed of medical progress can give you insights into the latest advances in managing Hunter syndrome.
