A case report on congenital hypothyroidism and alpha thalassemia in children with anemia and muscle damage as the main manifestation
Due to CH and alpha thalassemia, there are no specific symptoms and they are prone to missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis. Therefore, patients with anemia and elevated muscle enzyme levels should be routinely tested for thyroid function to diagnose them early and provide proper treatment to avoid negative consequences.
