Anderson-Fabry disease is a rare X-linked lysosomal storage disorder due to the deficiency of alfa-galactosidase A (AGAL). The subsequent accumulation of glycosphingolipids may lead to to cardiac, renal, and central nervous system impairment as well as premature death. Recently published studies suggest that the true incidence of the disease may be underestimated in certain risk groups, e.g. in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
