Sažetak
We present a case of patient with clinical features ,”scattered” in a space and time, and multiple demyelinating
lesions of the central nervous system (CNS), primarily understood as multiple sclerosis (MS). Due to progressive neurological deterioration and the appearance of symptoms outside the CNS along with lactacidemia in effort and the absence of Ig GOP (oligoclonal areas) in the cerebrospinal fluid, we suspected accuracy
of diagnosis for MS. Analysis of muscle biopsy showed evident signs of disorders in mitochondrial metabolism, and genetic analysis of DNA defect confirmed the diagnosis of mitochondrial encephalomyopathy.
