These Gaucher symptons may include anaemia, fatigue, easy bruising and a tendency to bleed. An enlarged spleen and liver may also occur in Gaucher disease as well as bone pain, degeneration and fractures. The most common form of Gaucher disease (Type 1) affects 1 in 100,000 of the general population although it is estimated that not all those who have Gaucher disease will show symptoms. In the rarer Type 2 and Type 3 Gaucher disease, neurological problems will occur. This site contains over 200 pages of information about Gaucher disease and its treatment.

Extractions: Gauchers Disease The first category, called Type 1, is by far the most common. Patients in this group usually bruise easily and experience fatigue due to anemia, low blood platelets, enlargement of the liver and spleen, weakening of the skeleton, and in some instances, lung and kidney impairment. There are no signs of brain involvement. The onset of clinical manifestations may be early in life, or delayed until adulthood. The second group is classified as Type 2. In this form, liver and spleen enlargement are apparent by three months of age. In addition, there is extensive and progressive brain damage. These patients usually die by two years of age.

Symptoms range from mild to severe and can appear at any time, from infancy to old age. They may include anaemia, fatigue, easy bruising and a tendency to bleed. An enlarged spleen and liver with a protruding stomach may also occur as well as bone pain, demineralisation and fractures. The most common form of Gauchers disease (Type 1) affects 1 in 100,000 of the general population but 1 in 850 of Jewish (Ashkenazi) descent, although it is estimated that not all those who inherit the mutated genes will show symptoms. In the rare Neuronopathic (Types 2 and 3) Gauchers disease, neurological symptoms include an eye movement disorder and possibly ataxia (unsteadiness), fits, loss of skills and a central auditory processing disorder. Early death may occur in the most severe forms of the disease. THE AIMS OF THE GAUCHERS ASSOCIATION 1. Provide information about Gauchers disease, an inherited, enzyme deficiency, disorder causing blood and bone complications; and keep families and medical or specialist advisers up to date with latest developments.

Extractions: *For Medical Professionals only, registration required Gaucher's disease, (Phillippe Charles Ernest Gaucher, 18541918, French physician), an autosomal recessive disorder of cerebroside metabolism characterized by accumulation of abnormal amounts of lipid in reticuloendothelial cells and accumulation of these Gaucher cells in various body tissues. For a general description, see Gauchers disease Three clinical forms of Gaucher's disease are distinguished. Type 1 is a chronic non-neuronopathic form, most frequent in Ashkenazic Jews. Type 2 is an acute neuronopathic disease, involving a fatal neurodegenerative disorder. Type 3 is a subacute neuronopathic (juvenile) form with neurologic and skeletal manifestations appearing in childhood or adolescence. On radiographs, infiltration of the bone marrow with Gaucher cells is characterized by increased radiolucency of bone and cortical scalloping and thinning. Geographic or motheaten patterns of bone destruction may be seen in focal osteolytic lesions. The spine may show osteopenia or osteolysis of the vertebral bodies, multiple compression fractures, kyphosis and spinal cord compression.

Extractions: *For Medical Professionals only, registration required Gaucher's disease, (Phillippe Gaucher, 18541918, French physician and dermatologist), an autosomal recessive condition involving congenital deficiency of the enzyme glucocerebroside with resultant excess of glucocerebroside in reticuloendothelial (Gaucher) cells which accumulates in the bone marrow, liver, spleen and lymph nodes. Three subtypes have been identified but 99% of cases represent type I, which has a wide range of severity. In type I, the age of onset varies from early childhood to late adulthood but most symptomatic patients present by adolescence. Those children who present before the age of 10 years generally have more severe and progressive disease. Typically, the child presents with easy bruising, lethargy, hepatosplenomegaly and bone pain. Radiological features of bone involvement are seen in the majority of children and may include the characteristic Erlenmeyer flask deformity The much rarer type II Gaucher disease presents in infancy with a rapidly progressive neurodegenerative course and death usually before 2 years of age. The rare type III Gaucher disease likewise presents predominantly with neurological involvement in childhood; death usually occurs by the age of 15 years.
