Hepatomegaly is a feature of all of the following, EXCEPT:

A
Hurler's Disease
B
Hepatic porphyrias
C
Von Gierke's Disease
D
Nieman Pick Disease
High-Yield Explanation
Frank Hepatomegaly is rare in hepatic porphyrias. Although hepatomegaly may occasionally be seen in hepatic porphyrias, frank hepatomegaly is rare and not a prominent manifestation of hepatic porphyria. Hepatic porphyria is therefore the single best answer by exclusion. Hepatomegaly is a prominent manifestation of Hurler's syndrome, Nieman Pick disease and Von Girke's Disease.
