[Division-related function and organ-related therapy in Fabry's disease. An interdisciplinary challenge]

Fabry's disease is a rare X-linked lysosomal storage disorder leading to an accumulation of globotriaosylceramides in the lysosomes of all tissues. As the accumulation occurs in all organs, different medical faculties are involved in the diagnostics and therapy of Fabry's disease. With this review the three main faculties (cardiology, nephrology and neurology) as well as the adjacent faculties (ophthalmology and dermatology) want to discuss the division-related function and also to suggest an organ-related additional therapy besides enzyme replacement therapy.     «
