Abstract
Mental retardation caused by congenital deficiency of thyroid hormones can be prevented by early diagnosis and therapy which are assured by neonatal thyroid screening. Congenital hypothyroidism screening is performed in Italy by regional centres which in 1989 have screened more than 82% of neonatal population. Since 1987 a National Register of children affected by CH has been instituted. The results of the analysis of data collected in the first three years are reported.
