Resumen
A quantitative and qualitative assay of urinary glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) was performed, by means of spectrophotometry and electrophoresis in 37 patients with a suspected diagnosis of osteo-chondrodysplasia. Levels were increased in 70.2% of the cases. One patient showed an electrophoretic pattern which was different and could not be identified in accord with the standard used.
