Overview

Fabry's disease can be classified based on its different phenotypes.

Classification

Based upon Phenotypes[1] [2]

Age of onset Severity alpha-Gal A activity Average age of death
Classic Childhood (mostly) Severe No activity or<1% of the normal mean 41 years
Atypical (later onset) Third to seventh decades Less severe 2 to 30% of the normal mean >60 years[3]

*Heterozygous females can be categorized in both groups based on the severity of the disease, from severe classic ones to less severe atypical and even no symptoms.[4]

Based upon complications

  • Cardiac variant
  • Renal variant
  • Non-neuropathic form
  • Neuropathic form
    • Infantile form
    • Juvenile form
