An autopsy case of Type II glycogenosis was reported with detailed description of ultrastructural findings. In addition to two typical patterns of glycogen deposition, membrane‐bound lysosomal glycogen and membrane‐free cytoplasmic glycogen, we observed numerous vacuolar structures in liver cells and a large deposition of homogeneous materials between fragmented myocardial fibrils. These findings were briefly discussed in this manuscript.
