Abstract
Regarding the "Colombian expert consensus on evidence-based recommendations for the diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of Fabry disease with renal involvement" published in the Rev. Colomb. Nefrol. Vol. 9, No. 1 (2022): the work is an excellent review of the most important aspects of Fabry disease nephropathy, achieving to be, in my opinion, an adequate practical guide for its management.
The consensus addresses a highly controversial issue among experts in Fabry disease, and also issues therapeutic recommendations even though, to date, there is no meta-analysis that directly compares enzyme replacement therapy versus pharmacological chaperones.
