Stroke-Like Lesion in an m.3243A>G Carrier Presenting as Hyperperfusion and Hypometabolism. [PDF]
Cureus, 2021 Carriers of the m.3243A>G variant typically manifest with stroke-like episodes (SLEs), of which the morphological correlate on imaging is the stroke-like lesion (SLL). The pathophysiology of SLLs is poorly understood but acute and chronic stages are delineated.
