Abstract: Glycogen storage disease (GSD) is a rela-tively rare inherited metabolic disease. However, its relative rarity implies that no metabolic centre has experience of large numbers of patients and experience with long-term manage-ment is limited. In addition, there is wide variation in meth-ods of medical treatment. With the development of medical care, life-expectancy in glycogen storage disease (GSD) has improved considerably. With ageing liver adenoma may de-velop which will bring about several complications-compres-sion, hemorrhage, or even transformation into carcinomas-and needs immediate intervention. In this paper, reviews for the mechanism and surgical intervention of GSD are presented.
