Background: Pompe is a congenital metabolic disorder and muscles involvement that is the most common presentation of it. The late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD) is a type of Pompe according to the age of clinical presentation. In LOPD, the muscles of the trunk and proximal lower extremity have not normal function, and the repertory failure can be happening for these patients. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) is a new method for treatment of these patients, but the efficacy and safety of this method are challenging for long-term so that in this pilot study efficacy and safety were evaluated for two years. Methods: In this prospective study, the patients with LOPD included this study, and they received rhGAA every two weeks for two years. In this period the motor and respiratory function of t... view more»
