A Case of Early Infantile Pompe Disease with Atypical Manifestation.
Pompe disease is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease caused by defi ciency of acid α-glucosidase (GAA). This defi ciency results in glycogen accumulation in the lysosomes, leading to lysosomal swelling, cellular damage, and organ dysfunction. In early onset patients (the classic infantile form), this glycogen accumulation leads to death, usually before the age of 1 year. Some p...
متن کاملLaboratory diagnosis of the neuromuscular glycogen storage diseases.
Of the 12 known genetic disorders of glycogen metabolism, five consistently involve the neuromuscular system. Pompe's disease is a generalized, fatal, lysosomal storage disease caused by absence of acid maltase. Structurally abnormal glycogen accumulates in Forbes-Cori and Andersen's diseases, resulting from deficient debranching and branching enzymes, respectively. Exercise intolerance, muscle...
متن کاملLong-term neurologic and cardiac correction by intrathecal gene therapy in Pompe disease
Pompe disease is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by acid-α-glucosidase (GAA) deficiency, leading to glycogen storage. The disease manifests as a fatal cardiomyopathy in infantile form. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) has recently prolonged the lifespan of these patients, revealing a new natural history. The neurologic phenotype and the persistence of selective muscular weakness in some pat...
متن کاملEpidemiology and Screening for Pompe Disease in Sweden.
Pompe disease (PD; acid maltase defi ciency or glycogen storage disease type II) is an autosomal recessive inherited, potentially treatable metabolic myopathy with heterogeneous clinical presentations and with considerable overlap of signs and symptoms found in other neuromuscular disorders. According to previous reports, patients with PD have been incorrectly diagnosed for several years as lim...
متن کاملFirst Case of Late-Onset Glycogen Storage Disease Type II in Russia with a Novel Mutation.
recessive disorder resulting from a defi ciency of acid α-glucosidase (GAA, or acid maltase), includes two main forms – infantileand late-onset glycogen storage disease type II (GSD II). Despite the age of onset and different life prognosis, Pompe disease is a single disease continuum with variable rates of disease progression and different ages of onset. The late-onset form of Pompe disease (L...
