Abstract

Although early thyroid scintigraphy is reliable in predicting permanent CH when detecting agenesis or ectopic gland, it cannot differentiate between permanent and transient CH in cases with a eutopic thyroid. Confirmatory TSH at diagnosis and the l-T4 dose through treatment may better distinguish between permanent and transient CH.
