Abstract
Mitochondrial Encephalopathy, Lactic Acidosis, and Stroke-like episodes (MELAS) syndrome is a mitochondrial condition with a wide range of neurologic complications including migraines, seizures, and stroke-like episodes. This case report highlights a rare presentation of bilateral sensory changes related to MELAS and offers an opportunity to consider how a differential diagnosis may need to be modified in patients with underlying mitochondrial disorders. Neurologic symptoms in MELAS may defy classic localization patterns, and early neuroimaging is warranted.
