Management of MPS I disease

Because of the multisystemic and heterogeneous nature of MPS I disease, patients should receive multidisciplinary attention, including consultation with specialists in this disorder as necessary.

Individual management decisions will largely depend upon a comprehensive and regular evaluation of the severity and progression of the disease in that patient. Early intervention may enhance the benefits of treatment.

Treatment of MPS I can be classed as general symptomatic or corrective treatment and therapy specifically targeted at the underlying cause.
