pubmed:abstractText
A 45-year-old male patient had an episode of acute renal failure with myoglobinuria, myalgias, weakness, and markedly increased serum CK levels. Similar episodes had occurred in the past. Carnitine palmitoyl-transferase II (CPT II) deficiency was documented both biochemically and genetically. Interestingly, muscle biopsy also showed some ragged red fibers (RRF) and complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence disclosed a homoplasmic T3394C point mutation. This mutation is described in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) or in patients with diabetes mellitus.
