Case report on congenital hypothyroidism: Early Vs Late Presentation
Keywords:
Hypothyroidism, Thyroid Dysgenesis, Ectopic Thyroid, Lingual Thyroid, Thyroid aplasia
Abstract
Most cases of congenital hypothyroidism are not hereditary and result from some form of thyroid dysgenesis. Thyroid dysgenesis can be aplasia, hypoplasia or an ectopic thyroid. Here we report two cases of thyroid dysgenesis presenting in different age groups.
