MELAS: Phenotype Classification into Classic-versus-Atypical Presentations [PEDIATRICS]

CONCLUSIONS:
We identified 2 distinct patterns of MELAS: classic MELAS and atypical MELAS. Recognizing different patterns in MELAS presentations will enable clinical and research care teams to better understand the natural history and prognosis of MELAS and identify the best candidates for specific therapeutic interventions.
