Abstract
INTRODUCTION Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) IVA or Morquio A syndrome is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) caused by deficiency of the N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase (GALNS) enzyme, which impairs lysosomal degradation of keratan sulphate and chondroitin-6-sulphate. The multiple clinical manifestations of MPS IVA present numerous challenges for management and necessitate the need for individualised treatment. Although treatment guidelines are available, the methodology used to develop this guidance has come under increased scrutiny. This programme was conducted to provide evidence-based, expert-agreed recommendations to optimise management of MPS IVA. METHODS Twenty six international healthcare professionals across multiple disciplines, with expertise in managing MPS IVA, and three patient advocates formed the Steering Committee (SC) and contributed to the development of this guidance. Representatives from six Patient Advocacy Groups (PAGs) were interviewed to gain insights on patient perspectives. A modified-Delphi methodology was used to demonstrate consensus among a wider group of healthcare professionals with experience managing patients with MPS IVA and the manuscript was evaluated against the validated Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation (AGREE II) instrument by three independent reviewers. RESULTS A total of 87 guidance statements were developed covering five domains: (1) general management principles; (2) recommended routine monitoring and assessments; (3) disease-modifying interventions (enzyme replacement therapy [ERT] and haematopoietic stem cell transplantation [HSCT]); (4) interventions to support respiratory and sleep disorders; (5) anaesthetics and surgical interventions (including spinal, limb, ophthalmic, cardio-thoracic and ear-nose-throat [ENT] surgeries). Consensus was reached on all statements after two rounds of voting. The overall guideline AGREE II assessment score obtained for the development of the guidance was 5.3/7 (where 1 represents the lowest quality and 7 represents the highest quality of guidance). CONCLUSION This manuscript provides evidence- and consensus-based recommendations for the management of patients with MPS IVA and is for use by healthcare professionals that manage the holistic care of patients with the intention to improve clinical- and patient-reported outcomes and enhance patient quality of life. It is recognised that the guidance provided represents a point in time and further research is required to address current knowledge and evidence gaps.

Abstract
Introduction Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) VI or Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome (253200) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by deficiency in N-acetylgalactosamine-4-sulfatase (arylsulfatase B). The heterogeneity and progressive nature of MPS VI necessitates a multidisciplinary team approach and there is a need for robust guidance to achieve optimal management. This programme was convened to develop evidence-based, expert-agreed recommendations for the general principles of management, routine monitoring requirements and the use of medical and surgical interventions in patients with MPS VI. Methods 26 international healthcare professionals from various disciplines, all with expertise in managing MPS VI, and three patient advocates formed the Steering Committee group (SC) and contributed to the development of this guidance. Members from six Patient Advocacy Groups (PAGs) acted as advisors and attended interviews to ensure representation of the patient perspective. A modified-Delphi methodology was used to demonstrate consensus among a wider group of healthcare professionals with expertise and experience managing patients with MPS VI and the manuscript has been evaluated against the validated Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation (AGREE II) instrument by three independent reviewers. Results A total of 93 guidance statements were developed covering five domains: (1) general management principles; (2) recommended routine monitoring and assessments; (3) enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT); (4) interventions to support respiratory and sleep disorders; (5) anaesthetics and surgical interventions. Consensus was reached on all statements after two rounds of voting. The greatest challenges faced by patients as relayed by consultation with PAGs were deficits in endurance, dexterity, hearing, vision and respiratory function. The overall guideline AGREE II assessment score obtained for the development of the guidance was 5.3/7 (where 1 represents the lowest quality and 7 represents the highest quality of guidance). Conclusion This manuscript provides evidence- and consensus-based recommendations for the management of patients with MPS VI and is for use by healthcare professionals that manage the holistic care of patients with the intention to improve clinical- and patient-reported outcomes and enhance patient quality of life. It is recognised that the guidance provided represents a point in time and further research is required to address current knowledge and evidence gaps.

Abstract
Background Patients suffering from mucopolysaccharidosis are among the most complex from the anesthesiological point of view, especially regarding the management of the airway. The evidence base for anesthesia management is often limited to case reports and small case series. Aims To identify useful information about experience with each subtype of mucopolysaccharidosis reported in the literature and propose a guide on the best options for airway management to the anesthesiologists who take care of these patients. Methods A query of the PubMed database specific for “anesthesia” and “mucopolysaccharidosis” and a further query specific for “mucopolysaccharidosis and difficult airway management” was conducted. We looked for those items that offered practical guidance to anesthesiological management. We did not exclude case reports, especially those that reported a specific technique, because of their practical suggestions. Results We identified 15 reviews, 17 retrospective case series, 5 prospective studies, and 28 case reports that focused on airway managements in anesthesia or had practical suggestions for preoperative evaluation and risk assessment. An accurate preoperative evaluation and the need for an experienced team are emphasized in all the reviewed articles and for each type of mucopolysaccharidosis. Many suggestions on how to plan the perioperative period have been highlighted. Insertion of a laryngeal mask airway generally improves ventilation and facilitates intubation with a fiberoptic bronchoscope. Furthermore, the videolaryngoscope is very useful in making intubation easier and facilitating bronchoscope passage. Conclusions Patients with mucopolysaccharidosis are at high risk for anesthesia-related complications and require a high level of attention. However, a multidisciplinary approach, combined with expertise in the use of new techniques and new devices for airway management, makes anesthesiological management safer. Further research with prospective studies would be useful.

Abstract
We report unexpected exacerbation of tracheal stenosis during general anesthesia in a 50-year-old patient with Hunter syndrome undergoing cardiac surgery for valvular disease. He had undergone cervical laminoplasty 3 months previously; at that time, his airway had been uneventfully managed. Preoperative flexible fiberoptic laryngoscopy showed a normal upper respiratory tract, but chest computed tomography showed tracheal stenosis that had flattened the lumen. The narrowest part above the tracheal bifurcation was 2 cm long and the anteroposterior diameter was ≤6 mm. Cardiac surgery was uneventfully performed. After weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass, the tidal volume suddenly decreased from 450 to 120 ml at sternal closure. The end-expiratory carbon dioxide pressure increased from 39 to 71 mmHg. Bronchoscopic examination showed that the part of tracheal bifurcation was almost occluded. A tidal volume of 400 ml was obtained after the transesophageal echocardiography probe was removed and the peak inspiratory pressure increased. Although extubation was performed on the second postoperative day, procaterol inhalation and noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation were needed for 3 days because of wheezing and dyspnea. In conclusion, the risk of lower respiratory tract obstruction should be considered during general anesthesia in patients with Hunter syndrome with collapsible tracheal stenosis undergoing cardiac surgery.

Abstract
We herein report anesthetic management during aortic valve replacement for aortic valve regurgitation in a patient with adult mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS type 2) (Hunter syndrome). This disorder is rare and related to the accumulation of a mucopolysaccharide in lysosomes. It affects various organs, including the airways, heart, and central nerves. In children with MPS type 2, the risk of airway obstruction during anesthesia/sedation is high, and the degree of difficulty increases with aging. The patient described herein was a 33-year-old male without mental retardation. Before surgery, trismus, megaloglossia, and the disturbance of cervical vertebral excursion were noted, suggesting difficulties with ventilation/intubation. Anesthesia was induced under sedation/spontaneous respiration. A laryngeal deployment was conducted using a video laryngoscope; however, the Cormack grade was III. Nasotracheal fiber intubation was performed, and airway obstruction occurred. A muscle relaxant was administered, facilitating ventilation. However, subglottic stenosis, which was not detected before the surgery, made the tracheal tube insertion difficult. Aortic valve replacement was performed without complications. A detailed postoperative examination of the airways revealed oropharyngeal soft tissue outgrowth, narrowing of the upper airway, subglottic stenosis, and displacement/circumflex of the airway axis. Either awake intubation or rapid induction can be selected for this patient; however, either way have risks of airway obstruction. It is important that strategies under light anesthesia or incomplete neuromuscular blockade should be avoided for such our patient as suggested in the JSA airway management guidelines. A preoperative multidisciplinary airway assessment and simulation are important.

Abstract
The mucopolysaccharidoses are a group of inherited metabolic disorders that are renowned for presenting clinical problems, particularly related to cardiac, airway, and skeletal abnormalities, in children during anaesthesia. The changing clinical management of the mucopolysaccharidoses can be described in three phases. An initial phase of accumulation and dissemination of knowledge about the management of this rare disease with a growing recognition that untreated Hurler syndrome and more severe forms of other phenotypes such as Hunter syndrome and Maroteaux–Lamy syndrome were associated with severe complications under anaesthesia. This was followed by a second phase reflecting the beneficial results of new treatments such as haemopoietic stem cell transplantation and enzyme replacement therapy. Early and successful transplantation has dramatically improved long-term outcome and reduced anaesthetic complications in children with Hurler syndrome. Enzyme replacement therapy is available for many forms of mucopolysaccharidosis. If commenced at an early age improvement in many organ systems may be observed with an improved quality of life. However, these current treatment regimens do not appear to improve neurocognitive dysfunction, or cardiac valvular or skeletal abnormalities. We are now entering a third phase where the partial benefits of these treatment regimens are resulting in an increasing number of older patients with partially corrected abnormalities, including difficult airways, presenting for ongoing treatment to a new and potentially unsuspecting group of clinicians. Major airway abnormalities may be encountered and current adult guidelines may need to be adapted. A multidisciplinary team approach involving paediatric and adult anaesthetists is recommended to optimise future management.

Abstract
This paper provides a detailed overview and discussion of anaesthesia in patients with mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS), the evaluation of risk factors in these patients and their anaesthetic management, including emergency airway issues. MPS represents a group of rare lysosomal storage disorders associated with an array of clinical manifestations. The high prevalence of airway obstruction and restrictive pulmonary disease in combination with cardiovascular manifestations poses a high anaesthetic risk to these patients. Typical anaesthetic problems include airway obstruction after induction or extubation, intubation difficulties or failure [can't intubate, can't ventilate (CICV)], possible emergency tracheostomy and cardiovascular and cervical spine issues. Because of the high anaesthetic risk, the benefits of a procedure in patients with MPS should always be balanced against the associated risks. Therefore, careful evaluation of anaesthetic risk factors should be made before the procedure, involving evaluation of airways and cardiorespiratory and cervical spine problems. In addition, information on the specific type of MPS, prior history of anaesthesia, presence of cervical instability and range of motion of the temporomandibular joint are important and may be pivotal to prevent complications during anaesthesia. Knowledge of these risk factors allows the anaesthetist to anticipate potential problems that may arise during or after the procedure. Anaesthesia in MPS patients should be preferably done by an experienced (paediatric) anaesthetist, supported by a multidisciplinary team (ear, nose, throat surgeon and intensive care team), with access to all necessary equipment and support.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES AND AIMS To document the incidence of difficult airway management and difficult intubation in the era of replacement therapy for Australian children with mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS). BACKGROUND Medical treatment for MPS has developed significantly since 1980's with a large number of patients now being offered either bone marrow transplant or enzyme replacement. The impact of these therapies on the incidence of difficult airway management has not been adequately documented. Similarly, anesthesia techniques and airway devices have been developed, which are thought to have greatly increased the safety of managing these patients under anesthesia but their role in children with MPS has not been systematically described. METHODS A retrospective chart review of 17 patients with MPS who had received anesthetics at the Royal Children's Hospital during the time frame January 1998-January 2011. The primary outcome was the incidence of difficult or failed intubation. Secondary outcomes were the relationship between the incidence of difficult intubation and treatment with enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) or bone marrow transplantation. RESULTS Seventeen patients received 141 anesthetics for 214 procedures. Difficult face mask ventilation occurred in 20 anesthetics (14.2%). Difficult intubation occurred in 40 anesthetics (25%). Failed intubation occurred in two cases (1.6%).The incidence of difficult intubation was 12% in MPS I, 35% MPS II, 86.7% in MPS VI, and 0% in MPS III and IV. CONCLUSIONS Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation prior to 2 years of age reduces the incidence of difficult mask ventilation and difficult intubation in children with MPS I. ERT was initiated late in the clinical course of MPS II and VI and induced improvements in upper airway patency but did not reduce the incidence of difficult airway management.

Abstract
AIM To assess the effect of bone marrow transplantation (BMT), enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), and a fiberoptic endotracheal intubation technique in patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I, Hurler syndrome). BACKGROUND The mucopolysaccharidoses are inherited metabolic conditions with a well-documented association with difficult airway management. We present the largest series to date of patients with Hurler syndrome (MPS I) and look at the impact of new treatments, such as BMT and ERT, on anesthesia and airway management. METHODS/MATERIALS We carried out a retrospective chart review of patients with MPSI undergoing anesthesia over 9 years at the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital. Data were collected on incidence of difficult and failed intubation and airway difficulties under anesthesia. RESULTS There were 39 patients identified, of which 20 had the attenuated form of MPS I and received ERT, 18 were treated by BMT and one patient received neither treatment. These patients had a total of 114 general anesthetics for 141 procedures. The incidence of airway complications overall is lower than previously reported at 31%. Patients with the attenuated form of the disease on ERT still have a high incidence of airway problems at 57% and a failed intubation rate of 3%. BMT patients on the other hand have a much lower incidence of airway complications at 14%, and there were no failed intubations in this group. CONCLUSIONS Managing the MPS1 patient continues to be a challenge but with treatment and newer forms of airway management it is improving.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Mucopolysaccharidosis I (MPS I) is a rare lysosomal storage disorder caused by deficiency of α-L-iduronidase, which results in progressive multisystemic disease. Patients with MPS I often require multiple common and uncommon surgeries and are at risk for surgical and anesthetic complications because of respiratory and cardiac disease. Surgery often precedes diagnosis; thus, surgeons and anesthesiologists may be unaware of potential risks. METHODS We analyzed data from the MPS I Registry, a voluntary observational database, for deaths occurring within 1 month of a surgical procedure among the 932 patients enrolled as of July 2010. RESULTS Among the 196 deceased patients, 186 reported 1 surgery or more, and 32 had 1 surgery or more within 1 month of death, including 20 who had 1 surgery or more within 10 days of death. Surgeries before death included hernia repair, central line placement, spinal surgery, tracheostomy, and ventriculo-peritoneal shunt. Most patients (28/32) had severe MPS I (Hurler), and 20 of 32 patients (all Hurler) died at 3 years or younger. In 6 of 32 patients, surgery was directly noted in the cause of death, including 4 patients with an attenuated form of MPS I. CONCLUSIONS Patients with mucopolysaccharidosis have a high postoperative mortality because of underlying respiratory and cardiac diseases.

Abstract
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II) is a rare, life-limiting, X-linked recessive disease characterised by deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase. Consequent accumulation of glycosaminoglycans leads to pathological changes in multiple body systems. Age at onset, signs and symptoms, and disease progression are heterogeneous, and patients may present with many different manifestations to a wide range of specialists. Expertise in diagnosing and managing MPS II varies widely between countries, and substantial delays between disease onset and diagnosis can occur. In recent years, disease-specific treatments such as enzyme replacement therapy and stem cell transplantation have helped to address the underlying enzyme deficiency in patients with MPS II. However, the multisystem nature of this disorder and the irreversibility of some manifestations mean that most patients require substantial medical support from many different specialists, even if they are receiving treatment. This article presents an overview of how to recognise, diagnose, and care for patients with MPS II. Particular focus is given to the multidisciplinary nature of patient management, which requires input from paediatricians, specialist nurses, otorhinolaryngologists, orthopaedic surgeons, ophthalmologists, cardiologists, pneumologists, anaesthesiologists, neurologists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, psychologists, social workers, homecare companies and patient societies. Take-home message Expertise in recognising and treating patients with MPS II varies widely between countries. This article presents pan-European recommendations for the diagnosis and management of this life-limiting disease.

Abstract
Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are a group of inherited, metabolic diseases caused by deficiency of lysosomal enzymes that degrade glycosaminoglycans (GAG). Loss of enzyme activity results in cellular accumulation of GAG fragments leading to the progressive multi-system manifestations. MPS are classified into seven clinical types based on eleven known lysosomal enzyme deficiencies of GAG metabolism. Respiratory involvement is seen in most MPS types with recurrent respiratory infections, upper and lower airway obstruction, tracheomalacia, restrictive lung disease, and sleep disturbances. Patients with airway obstruction are at high risk for anaesthetic complications. In this review, we present the respiratory manifestations in various MPS types and stages, evaluation of respiratory involvement, and treatment options for the progressive respiratory failure that occurs in MPS patients.

Abstract
Hunter syndrome is a rare, X-linked disorder caused by a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase. In the absence of sufficient enzyme activity, glycosaminoglycans accumulate in the lysosomes of many tissues and organs and contribute to the multisystem, progressive pathologies seen in Hunter syndrome. The nervous, cardiovascular, respiratory, and musculoskeletal systems can be involved in individuals with Hunter syndrome. Although the management of some clinical problems associated with the disease may seem routine, the management is typically complex and requires the physician to be aware of the special issues surrounding the patient with Hunter syndrome, and a multidisciplinary approach should be taken. Subspecialties such as otorhinolaryngology, neurosurgery, orthopedics, cardiology, anesthesiology, pulmonology, and neurodevelopment will all have a role in management, as will specialty areas such as physiotherapy, audiology, and others. The important management topics are discussed in this review, and the use of enzyme-replacement therapy with recombinant human iduronate-2-sulfatase as a specific treatment for Hunter syndrome is presented.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Respiratory problems are frequently encountered by patients with Hunter syndrome and contribute to the premature mortality seen in individuals with the disease. Progressive deposition of glycosaminoglycans in the soft tissue of the throat and trachea is thought to be responsible for the airway dysfunction and obstruction, which characterize the syndrome. Other physical characteristics, including abnormalities in the shape and structure of the ribs, abdominal organ enlargement, short neck and immobile jaw, further contribute to the respiratory problems. New measurement systems specifically tailored to paediatric patients now allow clinicians to follow the progressive deterioration of lung function, which was previously challenging in this population. Sleep apnoea is another common feature of Hunter syndrome, which can lead to a reduction in oxygen saturation of the blood and severely disrupts sleep. In our clinic, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), in which inspired air at elevated pressure is delivered through a specially designed mask, has proved to be effective for reducing sleep apnoea in patients with Hunter syndrome. As a consequence of the anatomical and pathological changes in the upper airways of patients with Hunter syndrome, general anaesthesia - especially intubation - is a difficult and potentially high-risk procedure. Consequently, such procedures should be performed by an anaesthetist - ideally accompanied by a paediatric pneumologist/intensivist - with experience in managing patients with Hunter syndrome. CONCLUSION Respiratory abnormalities are a major contributor to the premature mortality seen in Hunter syndrome. Treatment of these respiratory problems requires the careful attention of clinicians skilled in the recognition, diagnosis, management and treatment of Hunter syndrome.

Abstract
There are numerous neurodegenerative and neurometabolic disorders of childhood. Individually, however, they are quite rare. Some may be seen only once in a lifetime at a given medical center, even one devoted to the specialized care of children. This article presents the classic neuroimaging features of some of the more commonly seen entities and of some of the more recently described metabolic disorders.
