Mitochondrial Encephalopathy, Lactic Acidosis, and Stroke-Like Episode Syndrome Presenting with Prolonged Visual Aura
We report a case study of mitochondrial encephalopathy, lac-tic acidosis, and stroke-like episode (MELAS) syndrome with presentation of headache and prolonged visual aura. Mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episode syndrome is one of the most commonly recognized mitochondrial diseases. It is characterized by lactic aci-dosis, the occurrence of stroke-like episodes, a...
متن کاملMitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes (MELAS).
We report the clinical, pathological, and genetic findings of a case of MELAS syndrome. This was a man who died for metabolic failure at the age of 27 years. His familiar history was positive for hypoacusia and stroke. He was of short stature and presented mild mental retardation. Since the age of 21 he suffered from recurrent brain-ischemic lesions mainly in the occipital lobes, documented by ...
متن کاملDiffusion and Perfusion Characteristics of MELAS (Mitochondrial Myopathy, Encephalopathy, Lactic Acidosis, and Stroke-Like Episode) in Thirteen Patients
OBJECTIVE We analyzed the diffusion and perfusion characteristics of acute MELAS (mitochondrial myopathy, encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episode) lesions in a large series to investigate the controversial changes of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) that were reported in prior studies. MATERIALS AND METHODS We analyzed 44 newly appearing lesions during 28 stroke-like ...
متن کاملunilateral cortical thickening and hyper-intensity due to mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke like episodes (melas)
patients with mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (melas) present with recurrent and partially reversible neurological deficits. lesions of melas classically cause a signal change in both the grey and white matter, predominantly in the occipital and parietal lobes. these lesions mimic infarction. here, we reported a case of melas with rare neuroimaging finding...
متن کاملThe Mitochondrial Myopathy, Encephalopathy, Lactic Acidosis, and Stroke-like Episode Syndrome-associated Human Mitochondrial tRNA Mutation Causes Aminoacylation Deficiency and Concomitant Reduced Association of mRNA with Ribosomes*
The pathogenetic mechanism of the mitochondrial tRNA A3243G transition associated with the mitochondrial myopathy, encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes (MELAS) syndrome has been investigated in transmitochondrial cell lines constructed by transfer of mutant mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)-carrying mitochondria from three genetically unrelated MELAS patients or of isogenic wild-ty...
