Özet
Fabry disease is an x-linked recessive metabolic storage disorder due to the deficiency of lysosomal alpha-galactosidase A, and the subsequent accumulation of glycosphingolipids, throughout the txxiy. Patients usually present with decreased sweating (anhidrosis or hypohidrosis), reddish-purple skin rash in the bathing trunk area (angiokeratomas), personal or family history of burning or hot pain in the hands and feet, particularly during fevers (acroparesthesias), cornea verticillata and proteinuria. In addition, patients can rarely present with severe hypertension. Here, we have reported a Fabry's patient who presented with severe hypertension as an unusual presentation.
