Neonatal presentation of GD represents a poor prognosis despite early initiation of treatment. Diagnosis remains a challenge as the presentation is rare and multiple tests such as BM biopsy, liver biopsy with both light and electron microscopy, enzymology, and genetic testing may need to be completed to reach a diagnosis. Neurological sequelae may manifest later making the decision to proceed with liver transplantation a difficult one.
