Аннотация

We consider the criteria for diagnosis of congenital hypothyroidism (CH) and discuss the possible reasons of this disease. The necessity of screening for CH is justified; the principles and stages of its holding are presented. We give the recommendations for the treatment of CH and discuss the typical errors allowable during the screening. As a whole, 18-year screening of newborns for CH has allowed to specify the prevalence of the disease (1:4000), revealed about 8 thousand children with CH, and eliminated cases of cretinism caused by late diagnosis of CH. Screening is spent today in all regions of Russia with coverage of 92-95 % of newborns.
