Abstract
A case is described of a baby born with a combination of a paralysed hemidiaphragm and congenital hypothyroidism which led to the need for artificial ventilation. Difficulties were encountered in discontinuing the ventilatory support. The problems involved in timing extubation of infants are discussed together with consideration of the diagnosis and treatment of neonatal hypothyroidism. Copyright © 1982, Wiley Blackwell.
