Abstract

Here, an 8-year-old girl is reported with bilateral horizontal gaze palsy, ataxia and drowsiness. Brain MRI demonstrated dorsal midbrain, bilateral putamen nuclei and cerebellar dentate nucleus involvement. MRS revealed an elevated lactate peak which suggested a mitochondrial disease. Finally, the molecular genetic test reported NDUFS4 gene mutation
