Abstract

Fabry’s disease is a rare X-linked lysosomal storage disorder associated with potential multiorgan dysfunction. We describe Fabry’s disease in an adult patient presenting to the Rheumatology clinic, St John’s Hospital, West Lothian, Scotland with “Raynaud’s- like” phenomenon, rash and renal impairment.
