Fetal goiter has an incidence of 1:40000 live births (1). 80% of cases are caused by dysgenesis of the thyroid gland. The rest 5% and 15% are due to hypothalamohypophyseal abnormalities and dyshormonogenesis, respectively. 8% of cases are due t...

The mountain slopes of the Himalayas, Alps, Pyrenees, and Andes have been the world’s most notorious foci of endemic goiter (1). The northern frontiers of India extending from Kashmir in the west to Assam in the east form an extensive Himalayan goiter belt (2). Forty million persons are believed to be exposed to the risk ofgoiter in this belt and approximately nine million are afflicted with it...
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Despite, the extensive salt iodization programmes implemented in India, the prevalence of goiter has not reduced much in our country. The most frequent cause of hypothyroidism and goiter in iodine sufficient areas is Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT). This study records the clinical presentation, biochemical status, ultrasonographic picture and cytological appearance of this ...
Multiple thyroid ectopia with a normally located thyroid gland is a very rare condition. We present a 34-year old Nigerian woman who had had anterior and left-sided lateral neck swellings for the past 15 years. She was clinically euthyroid and thyroid function test results were normal. Neck ultrasonography revealed multinodular goiter with extension to the left pre-auricular area. Fine Needle A...

Some studies have shown iodine deficiency in water, soil, and food in many places worldwide.We aimed to determine the prevalence of goiter and the association between urine iodine levels in children with severity and prevalence of goiter in mountainous villages of Kashan city (center of Ira...
Profound deafness is one of the most striking features of certain congenital thyroid diseases. In addition, lesser defects in auditory function, albeit of uncertain incidence and severity, have been described in acquired thyroid disorders in later life. Numerous reports in the medical literature have indicated a link between the function of the thyroid gland and the development and possibly the...
thyroid hemiagenesis can be associated with various thyroid pathologies such as papillary thyroid cancer or nodular goiter. however, we did not encounter any publication in the literature in which hemiagenesis could be observed together with retrosternal goiter. in this report, a thyroid hemiagenesis associated with a benign nodular goiter extending retrosternally is reported. a 59-year-old mal...
background & objectives: iodine deficiency disorder (idd) is the most common endocrine disorder in the world. it is estimated that about 1.5 billion people are in iodine deficiency state. many studies have shown the high prevalence of endemic goiter and iodine deficiency in iran. for control of this health problem salt iodinization is the best accepted strategy in the world. the main objectiv...
Endemic goiter is clustered occurrences of goiter affecting more than 10% of the population in particular regions. The majority cases are attributed to environmental factors such as iodine deficiency, or food and water containing goiter-causing agents called goitrogens. We report a new type of endemic goiter where the basic abnormality was not due to environment factors, but to thyroglobulin ge...
