ABSTRACT
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II) results from the genetic deficiency of a lysosomal enzyme and is associated with central nervous system (CNS) dysfunction. In Japan, in addition to intravenous enzyme administration, intracerebroventricular enzyme delivery through the Ommaya reservoir has recently gained approval. Nevertheless, the ideal approach for safely implanting the reservoir into the narrow ventricles of infantile MPS II patients remains uncertain. In this report, we present two cases of successful reservoir placement in infantile MPS II patients using ultrasound guidance via the anterior fontanelle, coupled with flameless electromagnetic neuronavigation.
