We present a rare case of myoclonic epilepsy with ragged red fibres with high level of heteroplasmy presenting with optic neuropathy and a rare phenotype of lipomatosis. Cutaneous lipomas are typically thought of as a benign/isolated entity and this case emphasises importance of considering mitochondrial disease in all patients with lipomatosis especially in the presence of other systemic abnormalities.
我们报告了一例罕见的伴有破碎红纤维的肌阵挛性癫痫,其异质性水平较高,表现为视神经病变和一种罕见的脂肪瘤病表型。皮肤脂肪瘤通常被认为是一种良性/孤立性病变,该病例强调了在所有脂肪瘤病患者中,尤其是存在其他全身异常的情况下,考虑线粒体疾病的重要性。
