The clinical identification of patients with defects in the mitochondrial respiratory chain is almost impossible. We describe screening tests that should be performed in order to select those patients in whom a skeletal muscle biopsy should be carried out for more specific biochemical assays. The im
Respiratory chain enzymes were studied in isolated mitochondria of two patients with mitochondrial myopathy. Both patients had been suffering from chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia and abnormal muscular fatigability since late childhood. One of the patients exhibited the complete triad of
