Type 1a glycogen storage disease with hepatoblastoma in siblings

Abstract: Clinical and histologic details of the two siblings with type 1a glycogen storage disease (GSD-1a) who developed hepatoblastoma are presented. The light microscopic studies on hepatic tumor in both siblings revealed fetal type of hepatoblastoma. Ultrastructural findings in Patient 2 showed markedly altered mitochondria, which were frequently surrounded by the rough endoplasmic reticulum. This is the first known occurrence with this association, and the third report on the familial occurrence of this neoplasm. … Show more

“…Individual subjects in this cohort, with apparent lifelong near normal metabolic control, developed complications at an early age. In addition, familial clustering of complications has been previously reported [12,13]. While our observations suggest that minimizing the metabolic abnormalities of GSD-1a may decrease the risk of longterm complications, it is likely that other factors are involved in their pathogenesis.…”

“…This raised the question whether the patient's advanced colorectal cancer would have been prevented by early APC analysis and appropriate FAP surveillance. To date, only seven families with HB in siblings have been reported [7,8,[22][23][24][25][26] ( Table 1), in three of them FAP was found [7,8,26]. In all cases of familial HB a detailed patient and family history is essential.…”

“…15 Hepatoblastoma in siblings was also rarely reported. [16][17][18][19] Those patients were not diagnosed in newborn period and mostly had unfavorable outcome. We encountered 2 siblings (Patients 8 and 22) with congenital hepatoblastoma diagnosed at birth due to huge abdominal mass.…”
