초록

미토콘드리아 질환은 단일 장기에서부터 여러 장기에 걸쳐 침범할 수 있다는 임상 증상의 광범위한 이질성이 특징이다. 안검하수, 색소 망막 퇴화, 외안근 마미, 시신경 위축 등과 같은 다양한 안구 증상이 미토콘드리아 질환에서 함께 나타날 수 있지만, 진행성 양안 백내장은 미토콘드리아 질환의 안과적 증상에서 매우 드물다. 저자들은 미토콘드리아 호흡 연쇄 복합체 결핍 환자에서 흔치 않은 안구 발현 현상인 진행성 양안 백내장 침범 사례를 경험하였기에 보고하는 바이다.

A striking feature of mitochondrial disorders is the vast heterogeneity in their clinical symptoms that ranges from a single organ to severe multisystem involvement. Though a variety of ocular symptoms such as ptosis, pigmentary retinal degeneration, external ophthalmoplegia, and optic nerve atrophy can occur in association with mitochondrial cytopathies, progressive bilateral cataracts are rare among their ocular findings. A 5-year-old girl with no previous medical history came to our hospital presenting symptoms of seizure. She started showing progressive developmental regression, increased seizure frequency, hypotonia, general weakness, dysphagia and decreased vision. Lactic acidosis was noted in metabolic screening test and we confirmed mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I defect in spectrophotometric enzyme assay using the muscle tissue. Progressive bilateral cataracts then developed and were fully evident at the age of 7. She underwent cataract extraction with posterior chamber lens implantation. We are reporting a case of mitochondrial respiratory chain defect with multiorgan involvements including bilateral progressive cataract, an uncommon ocular manifestation. Ophthalmologic evaluation is highly recommended not to overlook the possible ocular manifestations in mitochondrial disorders.
