Abstract:
Recent advances in the understanding of the normal process of maturation of fetal thyroid function now make possible the in utero diagnosis of fetal system abnormalities. The approach to the fetus at risk for altered thyroid function is discussed in the context of normal thyroid development and emphasis is given to the fetus presenting with goiter.
