An autosomal recessive disorder of muscle carbohydrate metabolism in which glycogen breakdown is blocked because of non-functioning of the enzyme myophosphorylase. The effect is a considerable reduction in exercise capacity. Attempts at strenuous activity cause cramps, muscle injury, RHABDOMYOLYSIS and MYOGLOBINURIA. Ingestion of sucrose before exertion can markedly improve exercise capacity.
