Overview

A case report identifies a THRB mutation causing thyroid hormone resistance in a middle-aged male, suggesting improved diagnostic pathways.

Key Points

  • To identify and characterize a novel mutation in the THRB gene responsible for thyroid hormone resistance syndrome.
  • Case report focusing on clinical presentation and laboratory findings.
  • Genetic testing performed to identify mutations in the THRB gene.
  • Magnetic resonance imaging of the pituitary gland conducted to rule out abnormalities.
  • A novel heterozygous point mutation in the THRB gene was identified (c.938T>C: p.M313T).
  • Patient exhibited elevated serum thyroid hormone levels with normal TSH levels.
  • The mutation site has not been previously reported, highlighting its novelty.
