Do Not Miss the (Genetic) Diagnosis of Gaucher Syndrome: A Narrative Review on Diagnostic Clues and Management in Severe Prenatal and Perinatal-Lethal Sporadic Cases
With a growing number of proved therapies and clinical trials for many lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs), a lot of hope for many patients and families exists. However, there are sometimes cases with poor prognosis, fatal outcomes when our efforts must be directed towards a prompt and correct geneti...
