Overview

Echocardiography may be helpful in the detection of cardiomyopathy due to glycogen storage disease type 3. Findings on an echocardiography suggestive of cardiomyopathy due to echocardiography include elevated left ventricular mass and thickness. Ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of glycogen storage disease type 3. Findings on an ultrasound suggestive of glycogen storage disease type 3 include hepatomegaly and increased hepatic echogenicity. Abdominal ultrasound should be performed at baseline and every 12-24 months to detect evidence of cirrhosis, hepatic adenoma, and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Echocardiography/Ultrasound

  • Echocardiography may be helpful in the detection of cardiomyopathy due to glycogen storage disease type 3. Findings on an echocardiography suggestive of cardiomyopathy due to echocardiography include:[1][2]
    • Elevated left ventricular mass and thickness
    • Preserved systolic function
