assistant: What are the signs and symptoms of Mucopolysaccharidosis type I? The signs and symptoms of MPS I are not present at birth, but they begin to appear during childhood. People with severe MPS I develop the features of this condition earlier than those with attenuated MPS I. The following list includes the most common signs and symptoms of MPS I. Enlarged head, lips, cheeks, tongue, and nose Enlarged vocal cords, resulting in a deep voice Frequent upper respiratory infections Sleep apnea Hydrocephalus Hepatosplenomegaly (enlarged liver and spleen) Umbilical hernia Inguinal hernia Hearing loss Recurrent ear infections  Corneal clouding Carpal tunnel syndrome Narrowing of the spinal canal (spinal stenosis) Heart valve abnormalities, which can lead to heart failure Short stature Joint deformities (contractures) Dysostosis multiplex (generalized thickening of most long bones, particularly the ribs) The Human Phenotype Ontology provides the following list of signs and symptoms for Mucopolysaccharidosis type I. If the information is available, the table below includes how often the symptom is seen in people with this condition. You can use the MedlinePlus Medical Dictionary to look up the definitions for these medical terms.

Much of this information comes from Orphanet, a European rare disease database. The frequency of a sign or symptom is usually listed as a rough estimate of the percentage of patients who have that feature. The frequency may also be listed as a fraction. The first number of the fraction is how many people had the symptom, and the second number is the total number of people who were examined in one study. For example, a frequency of 25/25 means that in a study of 25 people all patients were found to have that symptom. Because these frequencies are based on a specific study, the fractions may be different if another group of patients are examined. Sometimes, no information on frequency is available. In these cases, the sign or symptom may be rare or common.
