Overview
Physical examination of patients with glycogen storage disease type 1 is usually remarkable for protruding abdomen due to marked hepatomegaly, short stature, doll-like facial appearance, truncal obesity, and wasted muscles.
Physical Exmaination
Physical examination of patients with glycogen storage disease type 1 is usually remarkable for protruding abdomen due to marked hepatomegaly, short stature, doll-like facial appearance, truncal obesity, and wasted muscles.[1]
Appearance of the Patient
- Patients with glycogen storage disease type 1 usually have a doll-like facial appearance caused by adipose tissue deposition in the cheeks.
Skin
Signs due to hypoglycemia include:
HEENT
Lungs
Signs due to hypoglycemia include:
Abdomen
- Protruding abdomen due to marked hepatomegaly (storage of glycogen and fat)
Neuromuscular
Signs due to hypoglycemia in infants include:
Older infants show signs including:
Extremities
- Cyanosis
- Growth retardation
- Relatively thin extremities
- Xanthoma may be found on extensor surfaces, such as the elbows and knees
