Uncommon mutation in mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (MELAS).
BMJ Case Reports 2017 Februrary 28
A 26-year-old man presented to the emergency department with new-onset generalised tonic-clonic seizures. His clinical picture suggested either autoimmune or infectious encephalitis while his brain imaging raised the possibility of a stroke.

After several molecular genetic analyses, an uncommon mitochondrial mutation was confirmed, unequivocally consistent with mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (MELAS) syndrome.
