?:abstract
  • Fabry disease (FD), like COVID-19, can affect multiple organs, including the lungs. Patients with FD would be expected to develop severe forms of COVID-19, not only because of lung involvement but also because of renal involvement and other comorbidities. We present two cases of patients with Fabry disease who had an infection by COVID-19. In the two cases presented, they presented mild forms of COVID-19. Although the role of the X chromosome mutation in FD on the development of severe forms of COVID-19 is unknown; in the cases presented, it is suggested that it may play a protective role in the development of COVID-19. Two cases are presented; it is suggested that FD would not be a risk factor for severe COVID-19.
