AB Mitochondrial  myopathies  and  neuropathies  or  neuromyopathies  refer  to  a  heterogeneous  group  of  disorders  caused  by  dysfunction  of  mitochondria.1–10  Mitochondrial  disorders  can  be  classified  according  to  the  associated  biochemical,  genetic  defects,  or  clinical  phenotype  (Tables  30-1,30-2,30-3).  One  difficulty  in  classifying  patients  by  any  particular  scheme  is  the  clinical-phenotypic  heterogeneity  associated  with  specific  mitochondrial  mutations  and  the  genetic  heterogeneity  in  well-defined  clinical  phenotypes  that  are  seen  with  mitochondrial  disorders.
