Abstract
Anderson-Fabry disease (AFD) results from decreased enzyme activity of lysosomal enzymes and intralysosomal storage of nonhydrolyzed forms. Cardiovascular complications, mainly in the form of HCM, contribute substantially to AFD patient mortality. Here, we report three new cases of obstructive HCM (HOCM) in nonclassical presentations of AFD and isolated cardiac involvement. In all three cases, the diagnosis of AFD was made postoperatively by routine genetic and morphological testing. Together with previously published cases, this report illustrates the potential safety and beneficial effect of septal surgical myectomy in patients with AFD-HOCM, as well as underlines the need for more thorough screening for clinical signs of AFD-associated cardiomyopathy and GLA variants among patients with HOCM.
