A Mild Clinical Phenotype with Myopathic and Hemolytic Forms of Phosphoglycerate Kinase Deficiency (PGK Osaka): A Case Report and Literature Review.


ABSTRACT: Phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) deficiency is an X-linked disorder characterized by a combination of hemolytic anemia, myopathy, and brain involvement. We herein report a Japanese man who had several episodes of rhabdomyolysis but was training strenuously to be a professional boxer. Mild hemolytic anemia was noted. The enzymatic activity of PGK was significantly reduced, and a novel missense mutation, p.S62N, was identified in the PGK1 gene. A literature review revealed only one case with a mixed hemolytic and myopathic phenotype like ours. This mild phenotype indicates the complex pathophysiology of PGK deficiency and suggests the benefits of dietary control and exercise.
