Abstract
An association between hypothyroidism and translocation type Down syndrome (DS) has been detected in a 42- day-old female baby with facial dysmorphism and low levels of blood thyroid hormones. The case is presented because of the rarity of this type of translocation, and the importance of hypothyroidismamong common findings of DS is emphasized.
