Background This study presented a 3 years old boy with Gaucher disease (GD) who was treated with enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) for 19 months and then developed multiple Gaucheroma. Review of literature was performed simultaneously. Methods The medical chart and literature were reviewed. A boy presented at the age of 15 months with anemia, thrombocytopenia, and hepatosplenomegaly. GD was confirmed by enzyme assay and gene mutations. ERT was administered right after the diagnosis. When the boy was 3 years old, multiple masses were discovered during a regular checkup abdominal MRI and biopsy revealed Gaucheroma. We also reviewed 20 GD patients with Gaucheroma and Gaucher cell infiltrated lymphadenopathies. Conclusion Gaucheroma is a rare condition of regularly treated GD patients. This patient even showed poor response to doubled ERT doses. The imaging studies are necessary for Gaucher patients to detect Gaucheroma and determine their malignancy. Regular checkups are recommended in all GD patients even with regular treatment, due to the possibility of having deteriorating change, like Gaucheroma.
