摘要Mitochondrial encephalomyopathy with lactic acidosis and strokelike episodes (MELAS) is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperlactic acidemia and stroke-like symptoms.[1] The clinical symptoms of MELAS are complex and diverse,with an incidence of 39.47% of aphasia.[2] MELAS is often considered to be gray matter damage,little studies investigated its white matter changes.
