Hypothyroidism, congenital, nongoitrous, 9(CHNG9)

MedGen UID:: 1684807
•Concept ID:: C5231396
•: Disease or Syndrome

Synonyms:	CHNG9; HYPOTHYROIDISM, CONGENITAL, NONGOITROUS, 9

Gene (location): Gene(s) directly associated with this condition or phenotype.	IRS4 (Xq22.3)

Monarch Initiative:	MONDO:0026732
OMIM®:	301035

Definition

Nongoitrous congenital hypothyroidism-9 (CHNG9) is characterized by a small thyroid gland with low free T4 (FT4) levels and inappropriately normal levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) (Heinen et al., 2018). [from OMIM]

Clinical features

From HPO

Short stature

MedGen UID:: 87607
•Concept ID:: C0349588
•: Finding

A height below that which is expected according to age and gender norms. Although there is no universally accepted definition of short stature, many refer to "short stature" as height more than 2 standard deviations below the mean for age and gender (or below the 3rd percentile for age and gender dependent norms).

Thyroid hypoplasia

MedGen UID:: 57720
•Concept ID:: C0151516
•: Disease or Syndrome

Developmental hypoplasia of the thyroid gland.

Central hypothyroidism

MedGen UID:: 488836
•Concept ID:: C0271801
•: Disease or Syndrome

A type of hypothyroidism due to an insufficient stimulation of an otherwise normal thyroid gland. Central hypothyroidism is caused by either pituitary (secondary hypothyroidism) or hypothalamic (tertiary hypothyroidism) defects.

Inappropriately normal thyroid-stimulating hormone level

MedGen UID:: 1691608
•Concept ID:: C5232538
•: Finding

A normal or elevated serum thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level in the face of an elevation in circulating FT4 and/or FT3.

Decreased circulating free T4 concentration

MedGen UID:: 1743550
•Concept ID:: C5421592
•: Finding

A reduced concentration of free thyroxine (fT4) in the blood circulation.
