Fabry disease • Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder- caused by deficiency of -galactosidase A • Enzyme deficiency leads to accumulation of globotriaosylceramide (Gb 3) • Frequency is estimated in the general population for 1 : 4. 500 and 1: 12, 000 • 0. 5 to 1. 0% of all young stroke patients are suffering from Fabry disease Brady RO et al.

Specificity (0. 5) and Sensitivity (1. 0) was nearly the same for both genders.
