Abstract:
100 cases of GSD were traced in the GFR. The overall incidence is 1:113000 in proportion to live births. Type I occurs most frequently with 30%, followed by Type II and Type VI with 20% each. Type III is extremely rate in the GFR. 5 cases were classified as glycogenosis with the Fanconi syndrome. With the exception of Type III the type distribution in the GFR was similar to that found in 316 cases in a diagnostic center in Belgium.
