This study revealed that GSD IX may present with only hypotonia and neurodevelopmental delay without liver involvement in the early infantile period. It should be emphasized that although liver GSDIX is thought of as a benign disease, it might present with multisystemic involvement and patients should be screened with echocardiography, bone mineral densitometry, and psychometric evaluation.
