초록

뮤코다당증(mucopolysaccharidosis)은 글리코사미노글리칸(glycosaminoglycans)의 분해에 필요한 리소좀 효소의 결함으로 인해 야기되는 질병으로 글리코사미노글리칸의 대사 산물이 세포의 리소좀 내에 축적되어 세포, 조직 그리고 기관의 기능 이상을 초래해 신체적, 신경학적인 퇴행을 보이며, 심한 경우 조기에 사망하게 되는 다양한 임상양상을 보이는 질환이다. 뮤코다당증 가운데 가장 높은 비율을 차지하는 헌터증후군(뮤코다당증 제2형)은 조기에 진단하여 효소보충요법을 시행하는 것이 중요하다. 본 증례는 언어발달지연과 등과 엉덩이에 몽고반점, 간비대, 두껍고 거친 피부가 있었으며 과성장된 신체 검진소견을 보였던 환아에서, 뇌자기공명영상 검사 결과에서 뇌교량체에 다수의 낭종, 백색질에 비정상 신호 증가 병변들, 미만성 뇌수축 소견을 보여 헌터증후군을 의심하였으며 효소검사 결과를 통해 확진하였다. 저자들은 언어발달지연을 주소로 내원한 환아에게 시행한 뇌자기공명영상에서 조기에 헌터증후군을 의심하여 효소검사를 통해 확진을 할 수 있었던 증례를 경험하였기에 이를 보고하는 바이다.

Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) is an inherited disease entity associated with lysosomal enzyme deficiencies. MPS type 2, also known as Hunter syndrome, has a characteristic morphology primarily involving x-l inked recessive defects and iduronate-2-sulfatase gene mutation. The purpose of this case report is to provide important clues to help pediatricians identify Hunter syndrome patients earlier (i.e., before the disease progresses). A 30-month-old boy showed developmental delay and decreased speech ability. Physical examinations revealed a flat nose and extensive Mongolian spots. Brain magnetic resonance images (MRIs) showed bilateral multiple patchy T2 hyperintense lesions in the periventricular and deep white matter, several cyst-like lesions in the body of the corpus callosum, and diffuse brain atrophy, which were in keeping with the diagnosis. Based on these findings, the patient was suspected of having MPS. In the laboratory findings, although the genetic analysis of IDS (Iduronate-2-sulfatase) did not show any pathogenic variant, the enzymatic activity of IDS was not detected. We could confirm the diagnosis of MPS, because other sulfatases, such as ${\alpha}$-L-iduronidase, were detected in the normal range. Early enzymatic replacement therapy is essential and has a relatively good prognosis. Therefore, early diagnosis should be made before organ damage becomes irreversible, and brain MRIs can provide additional diagnostic clues to help distinguish the disorder.
