Background The phosphoglucomutase 1 (PGM1) enzyme plays a central role in glucose homeostasis by catalyzing the inter-conversion of glucose 1-phosphate and glucose 6-phosphate. Recently, PGM1 deficiency has been recognized as a cause of the congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDGs). Methods Two Chinese Han pediatric patients with recurrent hypoglycemia, hepatopathy and growth retardation are described in this study. Targeted gene sequencing (TGS) was performed to screen for causal genetic variants in the genome of the patients and their parents to determine the genetic basis of the phenotype. Results DNA sequencing identified three variations of the PGM1 gene (NM_002633.2). Patient 1 had a novel homozygous mutation (c.119delT, p.Ile40Thrfs*28). In patient 2, we found a compound heterozygous mutation of c.1172G&gt;T(p.Gly391Val) (novel) and c.1507C&gt;T(p.Arg503*) (known pathogenic). Conclusions This report deepens our understanding of the clinical features of PGM1 mutation. The early molecular genetic analysis and multisystem assessment were here found to be essential to the diagnosis of PGM1-CDG and the provision of timely and proper treatment.
