The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

We describe a patient with chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia (CPEO) due to a deletion of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) who had electromyographic evidence of myotonic discharges. Myotonia has not previously been described in association with mitochondrial disease and this report extends the known phenotypic expression of these disorders.
