Unilateral cortical thickening and hyper-intensity due to mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke like episodes (MELAS)

Unilateral 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....
