Abstract

Pompe disease, also known as type II glycogenosis, is a rare autosomal recessive disease. Two main types include early-onset Pompe disease – severe, rapidly progressive multisystem deficency, manifestating on the first year of life, and late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD), with the age of onset ranging from the first year till late adulthood. Both types are caused by the deficiency of lysosomal acid-α-glucosidase due to the mutations in GAA gene, leading to an excessive storage of glycogen in body cells. LOPD is a slowly progressive disease with a primary lesion of a skeletal, respiratory and cardiac muscles, affected in different grade, and moderately elevated сreatine kinase. It is often difficult to perform differential diagnosis with a large group of hereditary and non-hereditary myopathies. We present a case report of LOPD with signs of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy.
