Apresenta-se sob três formas clínicas distintas, podendo ser rapidamente fatal ou crônica com poucos sintomas.

Radiographic findings indicate a certain degree of bone marrow infiltration and replacement by Gaucher cells, resulting in loss of bone trabeculation and decreased density, more common in the epiphysis and metaphysis of long bones (17) . A study carried out in 2012, aimed to highlight Gaucher disease, in order to improve patient care and quality of life, showed that in 80% of the sample there was confirmation of bone disease by radiographic and historical examination of bone pain (18) .…”
