Abstract
Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) deficiencies are mostly due to mutations in the X-linked PDHA1 gene. Males with hemizygous PDHA1 mutations are clinically more severely affected, while those with mosaic PDHA1 mutations may manifest milder phenotypes. We report a patient harboring a novel, mosaic missense PDHA1 mutation, c.523G > A (p.A175T), with a severe clinical presentation of congenital microcephaly, significant brain abnormalities, persistent seizures, profound developmental delay, and failure to thrive. We review published cases of PDHA1 mosaicism.
