Overview
Effective measures for primary prevention of glycogen storage disease type 3 include genetic counseling, prenatal diagnosis, and screening.
Primary Prevention
Effective measures for primary prevention of glycogen storage disease type 3 include:[1]
- Genetic counseling: Genetic counseling should be offered to all parents with a child with GSD type 1 and to all adults with GSD type 1.
- Prenatal diagnosis: The preferred method for prenatal diagnosis is molecular testing when AGL mutation is known. Mutation analysis is performed either on cultured chorionic villus samples or amniocytes.
- Screening: The proband's AGL mutations should be determined for diagnosis and direct further testing for family members.
