Summary

In France, the incidence of congenital hypothyroidism has increased significantly since the newborn screening program was introduced in 1978. The largest increase is seen in children with eutopic thyroid gland. More than one-third of children with eutopic gland have transient hypothyroidism. Clinical practice guidelines recommend to re-evaluate thyroid function in children with eutopic gland around the age of 3 years to determine whether hypothyroidism is transient or permanent. Up until today it is still difficult to determine early on whether hypothyroidism is transient or permanent in children with eutopic gland. Our aim is to identify one or more predictive factors for transient congenital hypothyroidism in children with eutopic gland or thyroid hemiagenesis.
