A rare genetically inherited anomaly of glycogen metabolism, considered a form of glycogen storage disease (GSD, or glycogenosis), characterized by post-meal hyperglycemia and fasting hypoglycemia. This is not a glycogenosis, strictly speaking, as there is no storage of glycogen, the enzyme deficiency preventing hepatic glycogen synthesis.
