T2-weighted brain MRI showed hyperintense lesions in the white matter. Muscular biopsy revealed ragged red fibres. Genetic evaluation did not detect the most common mutations in the MT-TL1 gene and MT-ND5 gene. Endocrine tests led to the confirmation of growth hormone deficiency, and so replacement treat...
