Glycogen storage disease (GSD) IV is a rare autosomal recessive inherited disorder caused by mutations in the gene coding for glycogen branching enzyme leading to progressive liver disease. GSD IV is associated with mutations in , which encodes the glycogen branching enzyme. We report a case of GSD IV with rare homozygous mutations in the gene (c.791G>A (p.Gly264Glu), which was successfully treated by liver transplantation.
