Abstract
We present a very unusual case of a baby born with antenatally diagnosed large neck swelling causing compression of
trachea on imaging, who was euthyroid. There was no history of any thyroid disease in the mother and no history of exposure
to known goitrogens. The goiter gradually reduced in size and baby’s thyroid function as well as neurodevelopment remained
completely normal during follow-up.
