Werdnig-Hoffmann disease with congenital hypothyroidism

Tamer Gunes et al. Ann Trop Paediatr. 2003 Dec.

Abstract

Congenital hypothyroidism is often associated with other congenital anomalies. In some instances it is difficult to differentiate congenital hypothyroidism from Werdnig-Hoffmann's disease. We report a case of congenital hypothyroidism associated with Werdnig-Hoffmann's disease that appears to be the first of its kind in the literature.
