Details
Mucopolysaccharidosis Type VII is a very severe form of a group of eleven different genetic diseases known as the MPS disorders. The MPS disorders are all classified as lysosomal storage diseases. Signs include skeletal changes and dwarfism, severe growth retardation and spontaneous death. Age of onset from birth. Most puppies / young dogs are euthanised.
