Gargoilism in children
Gargoilism (synonyms: Pfoundler-Hurler's disease, Hurler's disease, multiple dysostosis, chondroosteodystrophy, lipochondrodystrophy, Hurler-Ellis polydystrophy, dysostotic idiopathy) is a congenital systemic disease. Sufferers have short stature, disproportionately large head, coarse facial features, bulging abdomen, hepatosplenomegaly, umbilical hernia, corneal opacity, reduced intelligence. A similar disease was known back in 1900. It was described for the first time by Hunter (Canada) in 1917.
