ABSTRACT

Fanconi-Bickel syndrome (FBS) is a rare inherited disease caused by mutations in the glucose transporter 2 gene, SLC2A2. We reported the first two Chinese cases of FBS. Both cases presented typical clinical features of hepatomegaly, hypophosphatemic rickets, severely stunted growth, fasting hypoglycemia along with postprandial hyperglycemia, and proximal renal tubular dysfunction with disproportionately severe glucosuria. Genetic analysis of SLC2A2 gene revealed novel compound heterozygous mutations in both patients. The characteristics of being born as small for gestational age and apparent liver dysfunction in our cases have been seldom discussed in the literature. It seems FBS patients in general have lower birth weight than normal, but further data collection is still needed. Symptomatic treatments were effective, but the serum transaminase of patient 2 remained moderately increased, and he patient needed further follow-up. The present study will supplement the up-to-date clinical characteristic spectrum for FBS.
