Popis: Glycogen storage diseases I, III and IV types are congenital disorders, which are commonly associated with severe liver diseases. Liver transplantation has been proposed as a treatment of choise for these disorders. While liver transplantation corrects the primary hepatic enzyme defect, the extrahepatic manifestations of glycogenoses often complicate the posttransplant management. Upon review of the English-language literature, 42 children under 18 years old were discovered to have undergone liver transplantation for complications associated with glycogenoses (18 patients with Ia type, 6 – with Ib type, one patient – with III type, 17 – with IV type). This artic- le represents the pediatric liver transplantation for complications associated with glycogenosis Ia type, analyzed posttransplant period in this recipient.
