Background: Lower cut-offs in TSH screening have doubled the incidence of congenital hypothyroidism (CH), particularly cases with an eutopically-located Gland-in-situ (GIS). Although mutations in known dyshormonogenesis genes, or the thyrotropin-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) may underlie such cases, these genes have not previously been screened comprehensively in a GIS CH cohort.Study design: We evaluated the relative contribution and mole...
