Glycogenic hepatopathy is a rare condition that causes significant hepatomegaly and elevated liver enzyme levels in uncontrolled type 1 diabetic patients. It develops due to excessive accumulation of glycogen in the hepatocytes. It is typically reversible with good glycemic control and rarely progresses to mild fibrosis, but not cirrhosis.
糖原性肝病是一种罕见的病症,在未得到控制的1型糖尿病患者中会导致明显的肝脏肿大和肝酶水平升高。它是由于肝细胞中糖原过度积累而发生的。通过良好的血糖控制,它通常是可逆的,很少进展为轻度纤维化,但不会发展为肝硬化。
