The authors compare the effects of treatment with thyroid extracts and levothyroxine on T3, T4 and TSH levels in 2 groups of 8 hypothyroid infants. Serum TSH levels were lower in infants receiving thyroid extracts on and after the 15th day. The interest of a treatment associating T4 and T3 and of adapted doses of LT4 is discussed.
