Abstract
IGSF1 deficiency syndrome (IDS) is a recently described X-linked congenital central hypothyroidism disorder characterized by loss-of-function mutations in the immunoglobulin superfamily member 1 (IGSF1) gene. The phenotypic spectrum and intrafamilial variability associated with IDS remain unclear due to a paucity of large, well-characterized pedigrees. Here, we present phenotypic analysis and molecular characterization of a five-generation pedigree with IGSF1 deficiency containing 10 affected males.
