Neurological symptoms are frequent and often a leading feature of childhood-onset mitochondrial disorders (MD) but the exact incidence of MD in unselected neuropediatric patients is unknown. Their early detection is desirable due to a potentially rapid clinical decline and the availability of management options. In 491 children with neurological symptoms a comprehensive diagnostic work-up including exome sequencing was performed. The success rate in terms of a molecular genetic diagnosis within our cohort was 51%. Disease-causing variants in a mitochondria-associated gene were detected in 12% of solved cases. In order to facilitate the clinical identification of MDs within neuropediatric cohorts, we have created an easy-to-use bedside-tool, the MDC-NP. In our cohort, the MDC-NP predicted disease conditions related to MDs with a sensitivity of 0.83, and a specificity of 0.96.
