The authors report 7 years of follow-up evaluation of a patient with coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) deficiency. Initial symptoms of exercise intolerance and hyperlactatemia improved markedly with substitutive treatment. However, CoQ(10) supplementation did not prevent the onset of a cerebellar syndrome. A switch to idebenone treatment resulted in clinical and metabolic worsening, which disappeared with subsequent CoQ10 treatment. CoQ10 defects may cause progressive neurologic disease despite supplementation.
