Mitochondrial diseases are disorders caused by impairment of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, characterized by clinical-genetic heterogeneity and frequent multisystemic involvement. It is difficult to establish a precise genotype/phenotype correlation and obtain a definitive nosology. Today's genetic classification distinguishes disorders caused by defects in the mitochondrial genome (sporadic or maternally-inherited) from disorders caused by defects in the nuclear genome (autosomally-inherited). We report an updated classification, briefly review the main clinical syndromes and describe the most recent genetic knowledge.
