title: Hunter syndrome: resolution of extensive typical skin lesions after 9 months of enzyme replacement therapy with idursulfase.
abstract: A 10-year-old boy with Hunter syndrome and extensive typical skin lesions underwent 9 months of enzyme replacement therapy, after which the skin lesions disappeared. We believe that treatment with idursulfase probably removes the cutaneous storage of glucosaminoglycans in Hunter syndrome.
