W chorobie Fabry’ego u kobiet wyróżnia się fenotyp klasyczny i nieklasyczny4,6. W badaniu wieloośrodkowym obejmującym 295 pacjentek u 147 rozpoznano fenotyp klasyczny, definiowany jako występowanie wariantu patogennego genu GLA i co najmniej jednego objawu swoistego dla choroby Fabry’ego.
Za objawy swoiste uznano: neuropatyczny ból charakterystyczny dla choroby Fabry’ego, zmiany skóry i błon śluzowych o typie angiokeratoma i/lub zmiany rogówki o charakterze cornea verticillate9. U pozostałych 148 kobiet rozpoznano fenotyp nieklasyczny, definiowany jako występowanie wariantu patogennego genu GLA bez charakterystycznych objawów swoistych dla choroby Fabry’ego. Obraz kliniczny tych fenotypów różni się w zależności od wielu czynników, m.in. klasyfikacji genotypu: u kobiet z klasyczną postacią choroby objawy zwykle pojawiają się w dzieciństwie lub okresie dojrzewania, podczas gdy u kobiet z postacią nieklasyczną – między 4. a 7. dekadą życia6. Ponadto dla klasycznej postaci choroby Fabry’ego typowe jest wczesne zajęcie wielu narządów, podczas gdy w postaci nieklasycznej liczba objawów może być mniejsza, a chorobę rozpoznaje się najczęściej z powodu dominującego zajęcia mięśnia sercowego lub nerek6. Niemniej jednak, u wielu kobiet z fenotypem nieklasycznym po szczegółowej ocenie klinicznej stwierdza się cechy zajęcia wielonarządowego30.
Objawy początkowe różnią się u kobiet z klasyczną i nieklasyczną postacią choroby. Fenotyp klasyczny charakteryzuje się wczesnym występowaniem bólu neuropatycznego, zmian skóry i błon śluzowych o typie angiokeratoma, zmętnienia rogówki lub soczewki, upośledzenia pocenia się oraz objawów ze strony przewodu pokarmowego. U kobiet z postacią nieklasyczną natomiast objawy mogą pojawić się znacznie później, a u niektórych dominują zaburzenia sercowo‑naczyniowe6,31, chociaż często stwierdza się zajęcie innych narządów niż serce4,32. Częstość zdarzeń klinicznych u kobiet z fenotypem klasycznym jest zasadniczo większa niż u kobiet z postacią nieklasyczną4. Potencjalny wzajemny wpływ uszkodzenia mięśnia sercowego i nerek w fenotypie nieklasycznym choroby Fabry’ego pozostaje nieznany z powodu braku danych długoterminowych.
