Pathogenic variants of ATP1A2 (OMIM ID: 182340) are usually associated with familial hemiplegic migraine type 2 (FHM‐2), alternating hemiplegia of childhood (AHC), early infantile epileptic encephalopathy (EIEE), transient cytotoxic edema, and so on. Here, we present a novel heterozygous ATP1A2 variant in a girl with alternating hemiplegia, febrile seizures, developmental delay (which subsequently subsided), and MELAS‐like syndrome (as indicated by brain MRI). The patient did not experience migraine with aura.
