      A Guide to Understanding MPS VI


      MPS VI (Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome) is caused by a recessive gene. There is a one in four chance with every pregnancy that the child will inherit the defective gene from each carrier parent and will be affected with the disease. There is a two in three chance that unaffected brothers and sisters of MPS VI children will be carriers. 

      MPS VI is a mucopolysaccharide disease known as Maroteaux-Lamy Syndrome. It takes its name from two French Doctors, Dr. Maroteaux and Dr. Lamy, who first described the condition in 1963. MPS VI has a wide range of symptoms that vary in severity and can be managed and treated with enzyme replacement therapies. There is no cure for MPS VI.
