• Congenital lactic acidosis
• Chromosomal microarray
• Pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency
• Deletion

We present a patient with congenital lactic acidosis, agenesis of the corpus callosum, and profound developmental delay. Assays of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex function were normal in lymphocytes, but decreased in fibroblasts. Sequencing of the PDHA1 gene did not reveal deleterious mutations, and BAC based microarray analysis did not reveal any chromosomal abnormality. However, gene dosage analysis with oligonucleotide-based chromosomal microarray revealed a deletion of Xp22.12-Xp22.13 involving complete deletion of PDHA1. This is the first report of a whole gene deletion of PDHA1 detected by oligonucleotide-based microarray.
