Thyroid stimulating hormone resistance syndrome – a case report
Resistance to thyrotropin or thyroid stimulating hormone (RTSH) can be defined as decreased responsiveness to thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) characterized by high TSH with normal but occasionally low T 4 and T 3 usually in absence of goiter or ectopic thyroid. It can be diagnosed when TSH is >30 mIU/L but free T 4 (FT 4 ) is within normal limit. Patient usually presents in euthyroid state with abnormally high TSH but may also present with mild to overt hypothyroidism. The precise prevalence is not known, but 20-30% infants may show transient mild RTSH. In adults it is rare. Here we report a case of RTSH in which a 19 years old young girl presented in euthyroid state with mild goiter. Ibrahim Med. Coll. J. 2014; 8(1): 32-33
