- W2419221902 abstract "A 30-year-old man was hospitalized with dysarthria and weakness of his right arm and leg. Three months previously, he had noticed numbness and weakness of his right shoulder, which spread to involve his left leg but which improved after 8 months. On admission, neurological examination revealed limb kinetic apraxia and constructive apraxia of the right hand, motor aphasia, dysarthria, and spastic quadriplegia. Sensory examination revealed hyperalgesia and dysesthesia in the right arm and left leg. Deep tendon reflexes were hyperactive in all four extremities. And he had bilateral Babinski signs. Laboratory examination revealed pH 7.38, PCO2 46.1 Torr, PO2 93.4 Torr, BE 1.7, and blood lactate, 9.0 mg/dl (normal 5-20 mg/dl). Cerebrospinal fluid lactate level was 20.0 mg/dl. pyruvate 1.34 mg/dl. and protein 83 mg/dl. Blood lactate and pyruvate values were markedly elevated after aerobic exercise. T2WI brain MRI showed scattered high signal lesions in the left precentral and postcentral gyrus, right paracentral lobes, both superior frontal gyri, and right superior temporal gyrus. Right biceps brachi biopsy showed almost complete cytochrome c oxidase (COX) deficiency. There were no ragged-red fibers. There was marked decrease of COX activity: 2.7 nmol/min/mg-mitochondrial protein (normal range: 33.0 +/- 16.1, n = 7) in the biopsied muscle. Open brain biopsy (after permission from the patient and his family) revealed gliosis and perivascular infiltration of lymphocytes and macrophages without vascular proliferation. There was no mitochondrial DNA mutations, deletion or duplication, including tRNA-Leu 3243, 8993, 3271, 9176, 3291, and tRNA-Lys 8344, 8356, and 8363. From these findings, a diagnosis of COX deficiency presenting as MELAS-like episodes was done. His mother also showed abnormality on aerobic exercise test, but she had no episode of stroke or neurological dysfunction. Six months later, his aphasia and apraxia of the right hand had resolved, and at discharge he was able to ambulate with a cane. Ten months later, he returned to his work. There has been no recurrence of neurologic symptoms over the next 3 years and 10 months. This patient appears to represent a rare case of adult onset COX deficiency presenting as MELAS-like episodes." @default.
