RATIONALE: Maternally inherited diabetes and deafness (MIDD) is a rare genetic disorder arising from mitochondrial DNA mutations, characterized by a combination of diabetes mellitus and sensorineural deafness. It is known that MIDD patients with cardiomyopathy have a poor prognosis, but there are no established guidelines for the diagnosis and follow-up of cardiomyopathy in MIDD patients.
PATIENT CONCERNS: Patient 1 was a 48-year-old woman who visited the hospital with cardiomegaly and had been taking oral hypoglycemic agents for 8 years. Patient 2 was a 21-year-old man, the son of patient 1, who visited the hospital for genetic screening. Patient 2 was also diagnosed diabetes mellitus 2 years ago.
DIAGNOSIS: Patient 1 was found to have restrictive cardiomyopathy on echocardiography and underwent endomyocardial biopsy and genetic testing to determine the etiology. The m.3243A>G mutation was confirmed and she was diagnosed with MIDD accompanied with diabetes and hearing loss. Additionally, patient 2 had m.3243 A>G mutation and was diagnosed with MIDD due to diabetes and hearing loss.
INTERVENTIONS: Because MIDD does not have a specific treatment, patient 1 took ubidecarenone (coenzyme Q10), acetylcarnitine, and multivitamin along with the treatment for diabetes control and heart failure. Patient 2 was taking ubidecarenone (coenzyme Q10), acetylcarnitine, and multivitamin along with treatment for diabetes.
OUTCOMES: She subsequently underwent routine transthoracic echocardiography, and a progressive decline in global longitudinal strain (GLS) was first observed, followed by a worsening of the patient's clinical situation. Patient 2 had concentric remodeling and decreased GLS. On periodic echocardiography, GLS decreased at a very slow rate, and the patient's clinical course was stable.
LESSONS: The findings of this report contribute to the understanding of the clinical course of MIDD-associated cardiomyopathy and highlight the potential of GLS as a sensitive marker for disease progression.
