Atrial Fibrillation with Heart Failure in a Case with Resistance to Thyroid Hormone Due to a Rare Thyroid Hormone Receptor β Gene Mutation.

Abstract excerpt

Resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) is a rare disease typically associated with elevated levels of thyroid hormones and non-suppressed thyroid stimulating hormones. The most common cause of RTH is thyroid hormone receptor β (THRβ) gene mutation. Most individuals with RTH are considered clinical euthyroid. We report a family with a rare heterozygous point mutation, c.959G>T, (p.R320L) of the THRβ gene. The proband...
