We investigated the correlations of deletions of mitochondrial DNA in skeletal muscle with clinical manifestations of mitochondrial myopathies, a group of disorders defined either by biochemical abnormalities of mitochondria or by morphologic changes causing a ragged red appearance of the muscle fibers histochemically. We performed genomic Southern blot analysis of muscle mitochondrial DNA from 123 patients with different mitochondrial myopathies or encephalomyopathies. Deletions were found in the mitochondrial DNA of 32 patients, all of whom had progressive external ophthalmoplegia. Some patients had only ocular myopathy, whereas others had Kearns—Sayre syndrome, a multisystem disorder characterized by ophthalmoplegia, pigmentary retinopathy, heart block, and cerebellar ataxia.
