Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To describe a child with apparent brain biopsy-confirmed acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) but genetic confirmation of compound heterozygosity for DNA mutations of the polymerase gamma (POLG) gene. DESIGN: Case report. SETTING: Tertiary referral center. PATIENT: A 4-year-old boy presented with ataxia and encephalopathy. RESULTS: Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated multiple focal areas of...
