Hurler syndrome: orofacial, dental, and skeletal findings of a case.

Hurler syndrome is a disorder of mucopolysaccharide metabolism caused due to inherited deficiencies of lysosomal α-l-iduronidase activity. We present a case of a 15-year-old male patient presenting with clinical and laboratory characteristics of the syndrome. A rare combination of skeletal, ophthalmologic, and dental findings was observed in this patient. Mucopolysaccharides excretion spot test of urine was positive and an assay of alpha-l-iduronidase enzyme was deficient, confirming the clinical diagnosis of Hurler syndrome.
