Overview

An echocardiography may be helpful in the diagnosis of cardiac complications of glycogen storage disease type 2 (GSD type 2). Findings for infantile GSD type 2 include cardiomegaly and findings for late onset GSD type 2 include dilated cardiomyopathy.

Echocardiography

  • An echocardiography may be helpful in the diagnosis of cardiac complications of glycogen storage disease type 2 (GSD type 2), which include:[1][2]
    • Infantile GSD type 2
      • Cardiac hypertrophy
        • Increased thickness of the left ventricular posterior wall
        • Increased thickness of the intra-ventricular septum
      • Rarely, outflow tract obstruction may be present
    • Late onset GSD type 2
