摘要
In a patient with clinical features of myoclonus epilepsy with ragged red fibers (MERFF), molecular genetic analysis of mitochondrial DNA did not show either of the two point; mutations typically associated with MERRF but did show multiple deletions by Southern blot. This case further illustrates the heterogeneity observed with mtDNA mutations.
