Abstract
There are various phenotypes of mutations in BCS1L which encode a mitochondrial inner membrane protein that facilitates the insertion of Rieske iron-sulfur protein into respiratory chain complex III. Herein we report the radiologic findings of a patient with bc1 synthesis-like (BCS1L) gene mutation who was presented with convulsions.
