A Patient with the GLA p.E66Q Mutation Exhibiting Vascular Parkinsonism and Bilateral Pulvinar Lesions.

A 76-year-old man was admitted to our hospital due to gait difficulty. Brain imaging indicated bilateral pulvinar lesions and moderate white matter lesions. The serum α-galactosidase A levels were measured for the differential diagnosis of bilateral pulvinar lesions and were found to be abnormally low. Therefore, the patient was suspected to have variant Fabry disease. A GLA mutation analysis showed the p.E66Q mutation, which is speculated to be a functional polymorphism rather than a disease-causing mutation of Fabry disease. Enzyme replacement therapy did not result in a marked improvement, however, the disease progression stopped.
