Background: Congenital, isolated, central, hypothyroidism (CCH), is rare and evades diagnosis on TSH-based congenital hypothyroidism screening programmes in the UK. Genetic ascertainment is therefore paramount in enabling prompt diagnosis and treatment of familial cases. Recognised causes include TSHB and IGSF1 gene defects, with only two previous reports of biallelic, highly disruptive (nonsense; R17X, in-frame deletion and missense; p.S115-T117del+T118), mu...
