Abstract

Pendred syndrome is a recessively inherited disorder characterized by goiter associated with sensory-neural deafness. The thyroid glands of affected individuals cannot organify iodide efficiently due to a defective gene in chromosome 7. Here we report a case of Pendred syndrome with retrosternal goitre.
