There are three variants, differing widely in their severity, with Hurler syndrome being the most severe, Scheie syndrome the mildest and Hurler-Scheie syndrome giving an intermediate phenotype.

At least three forms of Hurler-Scheie syndrome with similar features have been proposed. These are: Hurler syndrome, Hurler-Scheie syndrome, and Scheie syndrome in decreasing order of clinical severity.

This disorder was once divided into three separate syndromes, Hurler syndrome (MPS I-H), Hurler-Scheie syndrome (MPS I-H/S), and Scheie syndrome (MPS I-S), listed from most to least severe.

There are mild and severe forms of the syndrome, the mild form is called Scheie Syndrome, the severe form is called Hurler syndrome, and children with an intermediate form have Hurler-Scheie syndrome.
