    Area of Science:

    • Neonatal endocrinology
    • Pediatric thyroid disorders

    Background:

    • Thyroid disorders are significant in neonates.
    • Hypothyroxinaemia is prevalent in preterm infants.
    • Thyrotoxicosis is a rare neonatal condition.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To discuss the causes of neonatal thyroid disorders.
    • To outline treatment strategies for these conditions.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review on neonatal thyroid disorders.
    • Synthesis of current knowledge on hypothyroxinaemia and thyrotoxicosis.

    Main Results:

    • Identified common causes of hypothyroxinaemia in preterm infants.
    • Detailed the rare causes of neonatal thyrotoxicosis.
    • Summarized established and emerging treatment options.

    Conclusions:

    • Effective management of neonatal thyroid disorders requires understanding their specific etiologies.
    • Timely diagnosis and appropriate treatment are crucial for infant outcomes.
