THYROID HYPOPLASIA

Description

Thyroid hypoplasia is a form of thyroid dysgenesis (see this term) characterized by incomplete development of the thyroid gland that results in primary congenital hypothyroidism (see this term), a permanent thyroid deficiency that is present from birth.

Most common symptoms of THYROID HYPOPLASIA

  • Global developmental delay
  • Short stature
  • Growth delay
  • Muscular hypotonia
  • Fatigue

HYPOTHYROIDISM, CONGENITAL, NONGOITROUS, 2; CHNG2

Alternate names

HYPOTHYROIDISM, CONGENITAL, NONGOITROUS, 2; CHNG2 Is also known as rtsh, thyroid agenesis, thyrotropin resistance, resistance to thyrotropin, thyroid, ectopic, hypothyroidism, athyreotic, athyreotic hypothyroidism, hypothyroidism, congenital, due to thyroid dysgenesis, thyroid hypoplasia, thyroid dysgenesis

Description

In 80 to 85% of cases, congenital hypothyroidism is associated with, and presumably is a consequence of, thyroid dysgenesis (Macchia et al., 1998). In these cases, the thyroid gland can be absent (agenesis), ectopically located, and/or severely reduced in size (hypoplasia). When thyroid hormone therapy is not initiated within the first 2 months of life, congenital hypothyroidism can cause severe neurologic, mental, and motor damage (cretinism).

Most common symptoms of HYPOTHYROIDISM, CONGENITAL, NONGOITROUS, 2; CHNG2

  • Intellectual disability
  • Short stature
  • Generalized hypotonia
  • Growth delay
  • Muscular hypotonia

DIFFERENTIATED THYROID CARCINOMA

Alternate names

DIFFERENTIATED THYROID CARCINOMA Is also known as well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma, pact, tpc, nonmedullary thyroid carcinoma, papillary, papillary or follicular thyroid carcinoma, papillary carcinoma of thyroid, familial nonmedullary thyroid cancer, papillary, ptc

Description

Differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC), also known as papillary or follicular thyroid carcinoma, is a slow-growing malignancy usually presenting in adults as an asymptomatic thyroid mass.

Most common symptoms of DIFFERENTIATED THYROID CARCINOMA

  • Neoplasm
  • Pain
  • Carcinoma
  • Hoarse voice
  • Goiter

THYROID ECTOPIA

Description

Thyroid ectopia is a form of thyroid dysgenesis (see this term) characterized by an ectopic location of the thyroid gland that results in primary congenital hypothyroidism (see this term), a permanent thyroid deficiency that is present from birth.

Most common symptoms of THYROID ECTOPIA

  • Global developmental delay
  • Short stature
  • Growth delay
  • Muscle weakness
  • Muscular hypotonia

ATHYREOSIS

Description

Athyreosis is a form of thyroid dysgenesis (see this term) characterized by complete absence of thyroid tissue that results in primary congenital hypothyroidism (see this term), a permanent thyroid deficiency that is present from birth.

Most common symptoms of ATHYREOSIS

  • Global developmental delay
  • Short stature
  • Growth delay
  • Muscle weakness
  • Muscular hypotonia
