Pediatric glycogen storage disease type V
Glycogen storage disease (GSD) is a type of glycogen metabolism disorder caused by congenital enzyme defects, which is autosomal recessive. The deficiency of muscle phosphorylase leads to the obstruction of glycogen decomposition in muscle cells and insufficient ATP production. The affected tissue is striated muscle, and the main clinical features are pain, cramps and weakness after intense muscle contraction. It is also called McArdle syndrome, McArdle-Schmid-Pearson syndrome, Cori type V glycogen storage disease, glycogen metabolism disease muscle type, muscle phosphorylase deficiency, etc.
