Abstract

Soft‐tissue masses are rarely seen in Gaucher disease. We previously reported a case of a 30‐year‐old patient with Gaucher disease type 3, receiving β‐glucocerebrosidase enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), who presented with slowly enlarging masses infiltrated with Gaucher cells along her back. Substrate reduction therapy introduced in addition to ERT, resulted in significant reduction of the large masses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
