    Abstract

    A 4-year-old German girl was diagnosed as having glycogen storage disease type la and showed no other marked symptoms except hepatomegaly. The glucose-6-phosphatase activity in the liver was approximately 1.5% to 5.0% of normal values, and molecular analysis revealed compound heterozygosity for R83C and the novel mutation N264K. This result indicates that there is a wide clinical variation of glucose-6-phosphatase deficiency. DNA analysis is helpful for confirmation of the diagnosis, as well as establishment of the genotype and phenotype correlation in glycogen storage disease type 1a.
