Core Tip Phosphoglucomutase-1 deficiency is a rare, under-recognized disorder with a broad and often subtle multisystem presentation. The condition was first recognized in 1963 through paternity testing and later classified as glycogen storage disease type XIV after reports of glycogen accumulation, severe enzyme deficiency, and rhabdomyolysis. This case underscores the importance of considering phosphoglucomutase-1 deficiency in children with unexplained hepatic dysfunction, hypoglycemia, neuromuscular symptoms, and congenital anomalies, and highlights the diagnostic value of early genomic testing.
