Avaliação do desempenho motor em crianças com mucopolissacaridose II

Abstract: Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) is a multisystem disease caused by the body's inability to perform a metabolic process specific to lysosomal degradation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). The progressive accumulation of GAG in various organs and tissues results in functional and structural disorders in individuals affected by MPS. MPS type II is an inherited metabolic disease, linked to the X chromosome, whose main impairment is the delay in neuropsychomotor development. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the mo… Show more

“…The involvement of self-care categories should be highlighted. Individuals with MPS have movement limitations and flexural contractures of the joints affecting especially knees, hips, elbows, wrists and fingers of the hands, leading to self-care activities impairments [22]. Rocha and colleagues emphasize in their study that the loss of muscle strength, especially in the flexor and extensor muscles of the fingers and forearm pronators and supinators, also hinders manual skills and, consequently, self-care [22].…”

“…In the drawing appear words like "Miracle", "God" and "Faith". leading to functional loss of thumb and claw hand (ROCHA et al, 2012). In some joints, such as knees, hips, and elbows, impairment becomes visible even in childhood (CARDOSO-SANTOS et al, 2008).…”

“…Atualmente, a classificação mais utilizada divide as mucopolissacaridoses em sete subtipos, com base nos achados clínicos e testes laboratoriais (NEUFELD;MUENZER, 2001). Mesmo apresentando características crônicas e progressivas típicas, as manifestações clínicas de cada subtipo variam de acordo com a enzima que está ausente no portador da doença, o que determina o tipo de mucopolissacaridose (ROCHA et al, 2012).…”
