Glycogen storage disease type 1b (GSD-1b) is due to an autosomal recessive inborn error of carbohydrate metabolism caused by defects in glucose-6-phosphatase translocase. Patients with GSD-1b have severe hypoglycemia with several clinical manifestations of hepatomegaly, obesity, a doll-like face, an
Persistent neutropenia and repeated respiratory infections were documented in a girl with glycogen storage disease type Ib. A termino-lateral portacaval shunt resulted in normalisation of the granulocyte counts and disappearance of the recurrent infections. The platelet dysfunction that was apparent
