Апстракт
We report a patient with MELAS treated for 24 months with idebenone and riboflavin, during which no stroke-like episodes occurred. Moreover neurological symptoms clearly improved, and a recovery of brain MRI and EEG abnormalities was observed. We conclude that the combined treatment with idebenone and riboflavin may restore the metabolic impairment in MELAS, possibly improving the long-term prognosis in these patients.
