Management of patients with congenital hypothyroidism
Abstract
The biochemical state and treatment of 73 children and 44 adults up to the age of 40 with proved congenital hypothyroidism were assessed in a regional study in the north of England. The findings showed that a substantial proportion of the patients were having inappropriate treatment or were not taking their treatment regularly and that in some of these there were clinical effects.
