Glycogenic hepatopathy [1] (also known as Mauriac syndrome [2] ) is a rare complication of type 1 diabetes characterized by extreme liver enlargement due to glycogen deposition, along with growth failure and delayed puberty. It occurs in some children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes irrespective of their glycemic control. Mauriac syndrome is a very rare syndrome that occurs in poorly controlled type 1 diabetes mellitus with diabetic complications. Its cardinal features include delayed growth and puberty, hepatomegaly, and moon faces. These features were attributed mainly to insulin deficiency and sub-optimal diabetic management. Its incidence is decreasing due Mauriac syndrome or glycogen hepatopathy (GH) is an uncommon complication of poorly controlled type 1 diabetes mellitus commonly occurring in adolescents.
