초록

MELAS is the condition associated with mutant mtDNA that most closely mimics thrombotic cerebrovascular disease. Characteristic abnormalities are two. first, 'ragged-red fibers' in muscle biopsy. second, point mutation in the mitochondrial DNA analyses. The characteristic clinical presentations of MELAS are short stature, recurrent stroke like episodes, migraine-like headache, sensorineural hearng loss, glucose intolerance and neuropathy. We now report a case of MELAS syndrome having mitochondrial DNA mutation with an A to G transition at the 3,243rd position diagnosed in Chung-ang Hospital.
