Mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy (MNGIE) is characterized by ptosis, progressive external ophthalmoplegia, gastrointestinal dismotility, thin body habitus, peripheral neuropathy, myopathy, leukoencephalopathy and lactic acidosis and multiple mtDNA deletions or mtDNA depletion, or both.
The affected members of these pedigrees are born with bilateral ptosis and restrictive ophthalmoplegia.
First, we established criteria for a "classic CFEOM individual" as an individual with congenital nonprogressive bilateral ophthalmoplegia and ptosis, an infraducted primary position of each eye with the inability to raise either eye above the midline, and forced duction testing positive for restriction, if testing was performed.
The clinical phenotype consists of congenital, bilateral ptosis and external ophthalmoplegia, with the eyes partially or completely fixed in a hypotrophic or downward position.
These phenotypes are classified as CFEOM based on the presence of affected members with congenital restrictive ophthalmoplegia affecting extraocular muscles in the nIII/nIV distribution.
