We report two male Taiwanese siblings in whom the T-->C point mutation at nucleotide 9176 of the mitochondrial ATPase 6 gene (m.9176T>C mutation) was associated with early onset hypotonia, lactic acidosis, and death due to respiratory arrest at 7 and 10 months old. Brain MRI showed lesions over diffuse white matter and the bilateral posterior limbs of the internal capsule. The m.9176T>C mutation is suggested as the cause of the bilateral striatal necrosis and Leigh syndrome. However, leukodystrophy in Leigh syndrome associated with m.9176T>C mutation has never been reported before. We suggest that m.9176T>C mutation could be a new aetiology for leukodystrophy in children with Leigh syndrome.
