Eur J Pediatr. 2016;175(3):427-31.
This observation of a young patient with classic Fabry disease about 5 years reveals that the long-term, low-dose agalsidase-946 caused proteinuria surges, but not persistent proteinuria, followed by temporary plasma GL-3 elevations, and agalsidase-946 at 1 mg/kg every other week could clear accumulated GL-3 from podocytes and was required to maintain normal urinalysis and plasma GL-3 levels.

For early diagnosis and timely management, careful examinations for proteinuria and renal function, in addition to establishing an effective screening system for Fabry disease, will be necessary.

Zenone T, Chan V.
Clin Neurol Neurosurg. 2011;113(7):586-8.
Fabry disease should be considered in unexplained cases of first or recurrent strokes in young patients disregarding the gender of the patient, especially when chronic kidney disease and/or proteinuria are present.

All young adults with stroke, especially if they have additional symptoms like angiokeratomas, proteinuria, neuropathic pain in toes and fingers should be tested for Fabry disease.

Chronic renal failure and proteinuria in adulthood: Fabry disease predominantly affecting the kidneys.
Cybulla M, Schaefer E, Wendt S, Ling H, Krober SM, Hovelborn U, Schandelmaier S, Rohrbach R, Neumann HP.
Am J Kidney Dis. 2005;45(5):e82-9.
Because 1 brother, who died years ago at the age of 32 years of acute myeloid leukemia, also had chronic renal failure and proteinuria, the diagnosis of Fabry disease was entertained.

Chronic renal failure and proteinuria in adulthood: Fabry disease predominantly affecting the kidneys.

Am J Kidney Dis. 2005;45(5):e82-9.
We conclude that familial chronic renal failure combined with proteinuria is suggestive of Fabry disease, and such specific mutations as E66K predominantly may affect the kidneys.

His serum creatinine level was 1.7 mg/dL (130 micromol/L), and he had proteinuria with protein of almost 5 g/24 h. Fabry disease was diagnosed by means of kidney biopsy and low serum and leukocyte levels of alpha-galactosidase A.

These findings have important implications for the renal effectiveness of enzyme replacement therapy in classically affected patients and for the aggressive treatment of proteinuria in Fabry disease.

A characteristic dissection microscopy appearance of a renal biopsy of a Fabry heterozygote.
Yuen NW, Lam CW, Chow TC, Chiu MC.
Nephron. 1997;77(3):354-6.
This feature is important for the investigation of female patients with asymptomatic proteinuria, as in two thirds of Fabry heterozygotes the characteristic skin lesions are absent, and thus heterozygous Fabry disease may not be considered.
