Contributor(s): Subject(s): Abstract: We present three Filipino patients who are on enzyme replacement therapy. Two patients with Gaucher disease have shown significant improvements in the hematologic, skeletal, liver and spleen findings during enzyme replacement therapy. One patient with Pompe disease, although less dramatic, showed notable improvements in fatigue severity scale, movements of some muscle groups, use of mechanical ventilation, and quality of life after two years of enzyme replacement therapy.
