Clinical characteristics and gene analysis of one case of glycogen storage disease type Ⅱ / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the key points of diagnosis and treatment of glycogen storage disease type Ⅱ(GSD Ⅱ).Methods:The clinical data of one child patient with GSD Ⅱ who received treatment in Hainan Children's Hospital on May 7, 2017 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:The child presented with atypical clinical manifestations, including pneumonia first, accompanied by muscle weakness and elevated muscle enzymes. Whole-genome sequencing showed that there were two heterozygous mutations in the acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA) gene, c.871C > T and c.1447G > A. The child was diagnosed with GSD Ⅱ.Conclusion:GSD Ⅱ has atypical clinical manifestations. It is easily misdiagnosed. Early whole-genome sequencing is helpful for the diagnosis of GSD Ⅱ.
