초록

Neurogenic weakness, ataxia and retinitis pigmentosa (NARP) syndrome is a rare maternally inherited mitochondrial disorder. Radiologic findings in NARP syndrome are varied; they include cerebral and cerebellar atrophy, basal ganglia abnormalities, and on rare occasions, leukoencephalopathy. This article describes an extremely rare case of NARP syndrome mimicking mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes (MELAS).
