A Novel Mutation in THRA Gene Associated With an Atypical Phenotype of Resistance to Thyroid Hormone

Abstract

This patient presents a new phenotype including more significant bone abnormalities, lower TSH, and higher FT3 levels, without certainty of all her symptoms with the TRα1(N359Y) mutation. This case suggests that patients with a low FT4/FT3 ratio should be screened for THRA mutations, even if clinical and biological features differ from previous reported cases of RTHα.
