Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy. New genetic considerations.

Archives of neurology - 1 May 1993

Newman N J

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is a maternally inherited disease that causes bilateral central visual loss, predominantly in young men. Recently, this disorder has been associated with point mutations in the mitochondrial genome. The clinical characteristics of LHON are reviewed with special attention to recent advances in mitochondrial genetics. DATA SOURCES: Literature from the mid-19th...
