Case report: adult-onset manifesting heterozygous glycogen storage disease type IV with dilated cardiomyopathy and absent late gadolinium enhancement on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging

摘要

Glycogen storage disease type IV (GSD IV; Andersen’s disease) is a rare autosomal recessive disease caused by mutation in the GBE1 gene. Presentation of GSD IV varies on a continuum of severity and symptomatology ranging from neonatal death to mild adult-onset disease with variable involvement of hepatic, muscular, neurologic, dermatologic, and cardiac systems. Cardiomyopathy seen in GSD IV is also heterogeneous and its appearance on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) is rarely described.
