Overview
Fabry's disease is often misdiagnosed due to its rarity and wide range of non-specific clinical manifestations. Fabry's disease be differentiated from various kind of condition based on the symptoms and organ involvement.
Differentiating Fabry's disease from other diseases
Skin manifestation
- Angiokeratoma: Fucosidosis[1],Sialidosis (Juvenile form)[2], Acral pseudolymphomatous angiokeratoma of childhood[3]
- Hypohidrosis/Anhidrosis :Horner syndrome, Topiramate usage, Acetylcholine intoxication, Ectodermal dysplasia
- Hyperhidrosis: Primary hyperhidrosis[4]
- Lymphedema: Chronic Venus insufficiency, Rheumatic disorders
Peripheral nervous system
