- Abstract
Biallelic loss-of-function variants in the IYD gene cause hypothyroidism resulting from iodine wasting. We describe 8 patients (from 4 families in which the parents are first cousins) who are homozygous for a variant in IYD (including a novel missense deleterious variant, c.791C>T [P264L], in 1 family). Seven patients presented between 5 and 16 years of age with a large goiter, overt hypothyroidism, and a high serum thyroglobulin. The goiter subsided with levothyroxine therapy in most. Upon stopping levothyroxine in 5 patients, goiter and hypothyroidism reappeared in 3. In these 3 patients, a rising serum thyroglobulin concentration preceded hypothyroidism and goiter and urinary iodine excretion was low. In patients who remained euthyroid, urinary iodine was normal. In conclusion, these patients bearing biallelic pathogenic variants in IYD developed a large goiter, a high serum thyroglobulin, and overt hypothyroidism when their iodine intake was low.
