Stroke-like episodes in mitochondrial encephalomyopathy with lactic acidosis
We described two patients (female, 47 years and male, 42 years)with mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis andstroke-like episodes (MELAS). Diagnosis was confirmed bygenetic study (A3243G mitochondrial DNA mutation wasfound), muscle biopsy and ...
