Overview

This case documents a rare instance of glycogen storage disease and gestational hyperlipidemic pancreatitis, emphasizing urgent care needs.

Key Points

  • This case highlights the rare combination of glycogen storage disease type Ia and gestational hyperlipidemic pancreatitis, presenting treatment challenges.
  • The patient, at 29 weeks gestation, exhibited significantly elevated triglyceride levels of 46.6 mmol/L and increased serum amylase.
  • Prompt intervention, including plasma exchange and double-filtration plasmapheresis, effectively reduced triglyceride levels and stabilized the patient.
  • Genetic testing confirmed the diagnosis of glycogen storage disease type Ia, underlining the importance of early diagnosis and tailored management strategies.
