Clinical Perspectives of Mitochondrial Disorders
1Krankenanstalt Rudolfstiftung, Vienna, Austria,
Abstract:
Mitochondrial disorders are increasingly recognised world-wide and represent a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. This is due to the peculiarities of mitochondrial genetics and the extreme genotypic and phenotypic heterogeneity of these disorders. Traditional time-consuming and expensive diagnostic steps are increasingly replaced by first-line genetic approaches. Despite recent advances in the treatment and prevention of mitochondrial disorders, therapeutic approaches are still limited mainly to non-invasive or invasive symptomatic measures.
