White matter changes in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy: MRI findings
Eur J Neurol.
2007 May.
Abstract
Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy is a mitochondrial disorder causing bilateral optic nerve degeneration. It is sometimes associated with clinical signs of multiple sclerosis. We report MRI findings in two patients with LHON-MS and comment on possible distinguishing features of this disease entity.
