Abstract
Gaucher disease is a sphingolipid storage disorder that results in the accu mulation of Gaucher cells within the reticuloendothelial system. The life s pan can be near normal in the most common form. Our case illustrates the re solution of the skeletal findings in Gaucher disease following enzyme repla cement therapy. We also report the correlation of these findings with clini cal improvement.
