MELAS with A3243G mutation presenting with occipital status epilepticus.

Journal of child neurology - 1 Dec 2009

Abstract excerpt

Mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes (MELAS) is a mitochondrial disorder commonly caused by the A3243G mutation. We report a patient who initially presented with visual hallucinations, headaches, and nonconvulsive status epilepticus originating in left occipital lobe who subsequently progressed to have multifocal seizures. His magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed subtle T2...
