Abstract “Pulmonary Interstitial Glycogenosis (PIG) associated with a spectrum of neonatal pulmonary disorders”, reported by Cutz et al represents one of the largest series published to date. The report included twenty-eight cases of lung or cardiac disorders with coincident diffuse, patchy, or focal PIG reviewed in Division of Pathology, The Hospital for Sick Children. The authors focused on reporting a spectrum of disorders associated with PIG and described four clinicopathological subgroups including imaging, ultrastructural findings, and clinical outcome. Spectrum of Lung and Cardiovascular Diseases in Association with Pulmonary Interstitial Glycogenosis. To the best of my knowledge, approximately 78 cases of patients with PIG (not including the cases published by Cutz et al) have been reported in the literature with variable information regarding the clinical presentation, comorbidities, imaging, histopathology, and outcome were published.
