Tatlisumak, T; Putaala, J; Innilä, M; Enzinger, C; Metso, TM; Curtze, S; von Sarnowski, B; Amaral-Silva, A; Jungehulsing, GJ; Tanislav, C; Thijs, VMitochondrial diseases, predominantly mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes (MELAS), may occasionally underlie or coincide with ischemic stroke (IS) in young and middle-aged individuals. We searched for undiagnosed patients with MELAS in a target subpopulation of unselected young IS patients enrolled in the Stroke in Young Fabry Patients study (sifap1). Among the 3291 IS pat...
