ABSTRACT Objective: Sporadic nonautoimmune hyperthyroidism caused by germline mutations of the thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) gene is a very rare disease that manifests as severe congenital hyperthyroidism. We describe a case presenting with sporadic nonautoimmune hyperthyroidism during adolescence. Methods: Laboratory data, imaging, histopathology, clinical follow-up, and DNA sequencing were evaluated. Results: The patient was born at term with a normal birth weight but showed increased growth velocity at approximately 7 months. He had no medical consultation before tachycardia was detected at a school physical examination at the age of 13 years. Thyroid function tests confirmed hyperthyroidism with negative anti-TSHR antibodies. After maintaining methimazole therapy for 12 years, he underwent total thyroidectomy, and the weight of the resected thyroid tissue was 131 g. The subsequent histopathologic findings showed an encapsulated follicular adenoma, adenomatous goiter, and hyperplastic changes of the foll...
