ABSTRACT
Gaucher’s disease is a rare lysosomal storage disorder characterized by abnormal accumulation of lipid-laden macrophages in different organs. Though hepatosplenomegaly is commonly found, symptomatic presentation with portal hypertension is rare. We report a child with liver cirrhosis and bleeding esophageal varices who was diagnosed with Gaucher’s disease disease.
