What is the Prognosis for Neonates with GSD?

The prognosis for neonates with GSD varies widely depending on the type and severity of the disease:
- GSD Type I: With appropriate management, many individuals can lead relatively normal lives, though they may have ongoing challenges.
- Pompe Disease: Early initiation of enzyme replacement therapy can significantly improve outcomes, particularly in the infantile-onset form.
- GSD Type III and IV: These types may have a more variable prognosis, with some patients experiencing progressive liver or muscle disease.
