NGIE is a mitochondrial disease that is characterized

by disorders of the nervous system, endocrine

system and the gastrointestinal tract. We have gained

experience of prenatal manifestation of the disease. The

diagnosis of which was established at the age of 19. In

other cases, the disease manifested at 33 and 27 years.

The purpose of the study is to study the frequence and the

nature of the clinical manifestations of a rare hereditary

disease - MNGIE.

Materials andmethods:

classic clinical-genetic andmodern

technologies are used. Patient S. referred with a diagnosis

of colitis, malabsorption syndrome, gastroduodenitis,

cachexy.

Results of the study:

Complaints of progressive weight

loss (30 kg for 7 years), epigastric pain, flatulence, altered

defecation pattern (alternating constipation with diarrhea),

severe general weakness, amenorrhea.

Ill since 7 years:

epigastric pain, progressive weight loss.

After the flu, the condition progressively worsened: pain in

the epigastrium, general weakness, weight loss increased.

Pedigree is burdened with neurological (hyperkinetic

syndrome) and multifactorial pathology (hypertension,

chronic gastritis). Height - 166 cm, weight - 35 kg, severe

cachexia, mongoloid eye incision, divergent strabismus,

protruding ears, thoracic spine scoliosis, chest deformity,

hyperemia of nose skin, hands, feet, moderate myopia,

astigmatism. In the neurological status - ataxia, tremor.

Biochemistry:

↓ glucose, ↓ total protein, ↓ calcium, ↓

folic acid.

Ultrasound:

Moderate diffuse changes in the liver

parenchyma, low location of the gallbladder, signs of

pancreatopathy, crystaluria.

The course of individual rehabilitation drug therapy, which

primarily included energy therapy, as well as metabolic

cofactor therapy and diet therapy:

• Coenzyme Q

• cytochrome C

• L-carnitine

• creon

• omeprazole

• probiotics

• microhydrin

• vitamins B6, C, E, folic acid

Results:

In the case of MNGIE, it is possible to avoid death

by diagnosing and effective treatment.
