Cretinism is an old term for a condition a baby is born with when the thyroid gland does not make enough hormones. These hormones help the body and brain grow normally. Without treatment, a child may grow more slowly than usual, have learning problems, and develop physical changes. Today, doctors usually call it congenital hypothyroidism.
Cretinism may cause symptoms such as poor feeding, coarse facial features and umbilical hernia. Depending on the condition and its severity, delayed medical care may result in persistent symptoms, progression of the disease, or related complications.
