Prenatal treatment remains controversial, and the risk to benefit ratio must be accurately assessed and considered for individualized management. The objective of this review was to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of the conservative treatment of fetal goitrous hypothyroidism.

Introduction: Foetal hypothyroidism negatively impacts somatic and neurological child development and can be the cause of serious obstetric and perinatal complications. We present a rare case of a large foetal dyshormonogenetic goitre, causing foetal neck hyperexten-sion, oesophageal compression, and cardiac high-output failure.
Material And Methods: A foetal goitre complicated by cardiomegaly and polyhydramnios was diagnosed at 23 weeks of gestation (WG) on a routine ultrasonographic (US) assessment in a healthy nullipara.
