Mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis and stroke-like syndrome (MELAS): a case report, presentation, and management.

Southern medical journal - 1 Jan 2007

Patel Ilaben Bhagubhai, Sidani Mohamad, Zoorob Roger

Abstract excerpt

Mitochondrial encephalopathy with lactic acidosis and stroke-like syndrome (MELAS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder frequently complicated by diabetes mellitus and sensory neuronal hearing loss. This syndrome tends to present initially with stroke-like symptoms. These strokes are nonvascular in nature and are linked to mitochondrial defect such as transient oxidative phosphorylation dysfunction, which...
