Permanent congenital hypothyroidism is the most prevalent inborn endocrine disorder, and principally due to developmental defects leading to absent, ectopic or hypoplastic thyroid gland. Although commonly regarded as sporadic disease, nonsyndromic thyroid hypoplasia has, in rare cases, been attributed to inherited defects in PAX8 and the TSHR gene. The shared clinical picture caused by these defects is a variable degree of thyrotropin resistance (RTSH [MIM 275200]), accompanied in its severe…

The prognosis of infants detected by screening and started on treatment early is excellent, with IQs similar to sibling or classmate controls, but studies show that a lower neurocognitive outcome may occur in those infants started at a later age, on lower l-thyroxine doses than currently recommended, and in those babies with more severe hypothyroidism.

Although familial cases represent a minority of cases of congenital hypothyroidism caused by thyroid dysgenesis, they were observed in a significantly higher proportion than would be expected from chance alone, and strongly suggests that genetic factors could be involved in thyroid Dysgenesis with a common underlying mechanism for both etiological groups.

Observations support the hypothesis of a common genetic component of the disorder with heterogeneous phenotypes, as thyroid developmental abnormalities are compatible with an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance.

Studies in murine models and in a few patients with dysgenesis revealed that mutations in regulatory genes expressed in the developing thyroid are responsible for this condition, thus showing that TD can be a genetic and inheritable disease.
