Altogether, this is the first report of LLS in a patient carrying mutations in TMEM126B. Our data uncovers the functional effect and the molecular mechanism of the pathogenic variants c.82-2 A > G and c.290dupT, which expands the gene mutation spectrum of LLS and clinical spectrum caused by TMEM126B mutations, and thus help to clinical diagnosis of TMEM126B mutation‐related mitochondrial diseases. The gene discussed is TMEM126B; the disease is mitochondrial disease.
