Pompe's disease (PD) is a glycogen storage disease characterized by the deposition of glycogen within body cells. This may lead to severe cardiac hypertrophy, with heart failure. The authors describe a female infant with PD, who developed severe cardiac hypertrophy, and was treated with recombinant human enzyme replacement therapy. This approach led to a progressive reduction of the heart hypertrophy, with improvement of the clinical condition.
