Joint manifestations of Fabry's disease.
We describe 2 patients with Fabry's disease with disabling crises of burning pain in hands and feet. These crises were accompanied by fever and an elevation of the erythrocyte sedimentation which often led to erroneous diagnosis of other rheumatic conditions. Fabry's disease should be considered on the different diagnoses of intermittent rheumatic syndromes.
