  • Title: Neonatal Thyrotoxicosis.
    Author: Samuels SL, Namoc SM, Bauer AJ.
    Journal: Clin Perinatol; 2018 Mar; 45(1):31-40. PubMed ID: 29406005.
    Abstract:
    Neonatal thyrotoxicosis (hyperthyroidism) is less prevalent than congenital hypothyroidism; however, it can lead to significant morbidity and mortality if not promptly recognized and adequately treated. Most cases are transient, secondary to maternal autoimmune hyperthyroidism (Graves disease [GD]). This article summarizes recommendations for screening and management of hyperthyroidism in both the fetal and neonatal periods, with a focus on neonatal thyrotoxicosis secondary to maternal GD. Early monitoring and treatment are crucial for optimizing short-term and long-term patient outcomes.
