Iodide transport defect (ITD) is an autosomal recessive disorder resulting in varying degrees of congenital hypothyroidism (CH) with goiter and low or absent radioiodide uptake (RIUT), as determined by thyroid scintigraphy, and low iodide saliva to plasma ratio. Defects of the sodium/iodide symporter gene (NIS) have been shown to cause ITD.
