Abstract:Fanconi–Bickel Syndrome (FBS) is a rare disorder of carbohydrate metabolism that is characterized by the accumulation of glycogen mainly in the liver. It is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner due to mutations in the SLC2A2 gene.

In this study, we report two cases of FBS with classical phenotypes of FBS ass… Show more
