List of Mitochondrial Diseases
The page has been co-developed with Mito Foundation.
Below is a list of mitochondrial diseases. Please visit the main Mitochondrial Diseases page on the RARE Portal and Mito Foundation for more information on this group of conditions.
Click on the link(s) in red, if available, for further information on a specific mitochondrial disease. More of these individual pages will be developed in time.
This may not cover all existing mitochondrial diseases. As research learns more about mitochondrial diseases, the list of different types continues to grow. If you know of any mitochondrial diseases that is not on the list, or are aware of any broken links or inaccurate information, please let us know via the Contribute Page.
