ABSTRACT
Aqui va el texto que falta Fabry's disease (EF) [OMIM 301500] is a lysosomal deposit disease, linked to an X chromosome, caused by the deficiency of the α-galactosidase enzyme (α gal), which generates the progressive accumulation of globotriaosylceramide (GB3)(2) mainly in vascular endothelium, producing endotheliopathy with important systemic manifestations(3). The factors for critical disease by SARSCov-2, identified in the general population, overlap with symptoms seen in adult patients with EF.

Objective:

Report the case of a patient with EF type I who presented infection by the SARSCov-2 virus during the third pregnancy quarter.

Pregnancy evolved at term without complications;the resolution was segmental cesarean section due to dilatation dystocia, obtaining a single male product in good general conditions, without exacerbation of the symptoms of the EF;The bimonthly trend scheme was maintained with home infusion Agalsidase B.

Conclusion:

Pregnancy can evolve without complications in patients with EF;that enzymatic replacement therapy is safe during it, and despite the vulnerability of EF patients, SARS COV-2 infection can evolve in a benign way.
