The unusual occurrence of neonatal hypothyroidism in monozygotic twins is reported. Scintigraphy demonstrated that permanent hypothyroidism in one resulted from an ectopic suprahyoid thyroid, while in the other, the transient hypothyroid state was associated with thyroid hemiagenesis. These findings suggest that the anomalies represent variants of the same developmental aberration.
本文报道了单卵双胞胎中罕见的新生儿甲状腺功能减退症病例。闪烁扫描显示,其中一例永久性甲状腺功能减退症是由舌骨上异位甲状腺引起的,而另一例短暂性甲状腺功能减退状态与甲状腺半侧发育不全有关。这些发现表明,这些异常代表了同一发育异常的不同变体。
