Obliterated pulp cavities in the Sanfilippo syndrome (mucopolysaccharidosis III). 1977

M S Webman, and S A Hirsch, and H Webman, and H R Stanley

Generalized obliteration of the pulp chambers and canals by irregular secondary dentin was observed in an individual with the Sanfilippo syndrome. Heretofore unreported, this dental finding may represent a manifestation of this mucopolysaccharide disorder.

D009083	Mucopolysaccharidoses	Group of lysosomal storage diseases each caused by an inherited deficiency of an enzyme involved in the degradation of glycosaminoglycans (mucopolysaccharides). The diseases are progressive and often display a wide spectrum of clinical severity within one enzyme deficiency.	Mucopolysaccharidosis
D009084	Mucopolysaccharidosis III	Mucopolysaccharidosis characterized by heparitin sulfate in the urine, progressive mental retardation, mild dwarfism, and other skeletal disorders. There are four clinically indistinguishable but biochemically distinct forms, each due to a deficiency of a different enzyme.
