The majority of patients develop signs and symptoms, related to heart failure and arrhythmias. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, in later stages combined with myocardial fibrosis, is one of the leading features. Both genders are affected, and females develop severe cardiac Fabry disease approximately 10–15 years later in life than male patients.
