Poor Growth
We present a 5-year-old boy with poor growth and delayed dental and motor development. There was no family history. On examination he had coarse facies, large protruding tongue, athletic build, short stature and mental retardation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Rarely, muscle enlargement is also seen, and the term Kocher Debre Semelaigne syndrome (KDS syndrome) is used. 1– 3 We report the case of an 11 year old boy presenting with poor growth, mental retardation, diffuse exertional pain in both lower limbs, [adc.bmj.com]

Exfoliation of Primary Teeth Delayed
The effect on the dentition was, to a great extent, limited to failure to exfoliate the primary teeth, delayed eruption of permanent teeth and distortion of the roots of the lateral incisors and first permanent molars. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Malocclusion
Based on these features, a clinical diagnosis of skeletal and dental malocclusion (class II) secondary to hypothyroidism was made. Photograph of the patients limbs showing prominent calf muscles. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

High Arched Palate
Intra oral examination revealed that the patient had high arched palate and a protruding tongue ( Fig. 4 ). Hard tissue examination revealed mixed dentition with permanent incisors, deciduous canines and molars in each quadrant. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Normal Stature
On examination he was found to be normal statured (height SDS 1.67; height velocity SDS 5.5) with prominent muscular build. He showed muscle hypertrophy with enlargement of the calf muscles. [abstracts.eurospe.org]
-
Hypertrophy of Calf Muscles
He had hypertrophy of calf muscles and the thyroid profile showed low levels of T3, T4 and markedly elevated level of thyroid-stimulating hormone thus confirming the presence of hypothyroidism. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Short Neck
She had pallor, hypertelorism, depressed nasal bridge, thick lips, hypertrophied tongue, and dry rough skin, short neck and umbilical hernia. [ojhas.org]
Beside this, he had features of short neck, umbilical hernia, coarse skin, incoherent speech and prominent calf muscles with proximal muscle weakness in the lower limbs ( Fig. 2 ). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Delayed Closure of Fontanelles
X-ray had revealed delayed bone age [Figure 3], delayed closure of fontanelle, delayed dental eruption [Figure 4], and dysplasia of heads of femur and epiphyseal dysgenesis [Figure 5]. [pediatricneurosciences.com]

Gowers Sign
His Gower sign was negative and his CPK was normal. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Systemic examination revealed bilateral bulky calf muscles, delayed contraction and relaxation of ankle jerk, and pseudomyotonia of calf muscles with negative Gower's sign [Figure 2]. Her gait was normal. [thetrp.net]

Clumsiness
Muscle hypertrophy with fatigue, weakness, and slow and somewhat clumsy movements; associated with myxedema and pseudomyotonia. [whonamedit.com]
Symptoms - Kocher-Debre-Semelaigne syndrome * Cretinism * Stiff large muscles * Discomfort in large muscles * Painful movement * Muscles slow to contract * Slow gait * Clumsy gait * Paramyotonia * Speaking difficulty * Enlarged tongue * Weak muscles * [checkorphan.org]

Cerebellar Sign
Figure 1: Short stature ( Click here to view Sensory examination was normal, and there were no abnormal movements or cerebellar signs. Initial hematological and biochemical workup were normal except for microcytic hypochromic anemia of 9.2 g/100 mL. [pediatricneurosciences.com]
Workup
Initial hematological and biochemical workup were normal except for microcytic hypochromic anemia of 9.2 g/100 mL. Serum creatinine phosphokinase was 912 U/mL (normal 35-145 U/mL). [pediatricneurosciences.com]
Treatment
Treatment This child was started on 50 µg of levothyroxine daily. Outcome and follow-up The child came for the first follow-up 2 weeks after the start of treatment and his calf hypertrophy had reduced and he was more active and interactive. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
treatment as KDS myopathy is reversible and responds favorably to adequate treatment for hypothyroidism. [8] References 1. [thetrp.net]
During myxedema coma, effective treatment supports vital functions while restoring euthyroidism. [checkorphan.org]
Based on these results, severe hypothyroidism secondary to autoimmune thyroiditis was diagnosed, and treatment was started with levothyxorine 75 μg/day. [elsevier.es]
The muscular pseudohypertrophy and clinical features of hypothyroidism revert with treatment of the hypothyroidism, though final height may still be reduced. [adc.bmj.com]
Prognosis
Achieving pharmacological and clinical euthyroidism is desirable from an anesthetic point of view and seems to improve the long-term prognosis. Hoffman Syndrome: Same clinical presentation with the addition of painful spasms and pseudomyotonia. [accessanesthesiology.mhmedical.com]
Prognosis - Kocher-Debre-Semelaigne syndrome Not supplied. [checkorphan.org]
Prognosis: If treated early, prognosis for a normal life is good. Ancillary treatments and support: Early initiation of therapy requires little further treatment beyond lifelong thyroid hormone supplementation. [wohproject.org]
Pharmacotherapy is disease specific; refer to the discussion of individual disorders that follows.32.10 PrognosisThe prognosis depends on the etilogi and specific diagnosis. [vdocuments.net]
Etiology
Primary autoimmune etiology was confirmed by raised anti-TPO antibody titre 1000 mU/ml and ultrasound features of autoimmune thyroiditis. [abstracts.eurospe.org]
The original reference is provided for historical interest, and review articles are included to show recent advances in etiology and treatment. [books.google.de]
They are organised into groups, and further divided into clinical, etiological or histopathological sub-types. [orpha.net]
The response to the therapy strongly suggested that Kocher-Debré-Semelaigne (KDS) syndrome was the underlying etiology. [degruyter.com]
Epidemiology
Summary Epidemiology Prevalence is unknown. Clinical description The syndrome usually presents between 18 months and 10 years but has been reported at earlier ages including during the neonatal period. [orpha.net]
The report suggested that the rise counterbalances reductions in lipid metabolism and insulin sensitivity and compensates for oxidative muscle and thyroid cell stress. [17] Epidemiology Frequency United States In North America, acquired impairment of [emedicine.medscape.com]

Pathophysiology
The pathophysiology is probably related to the complex interaction between the hypothalamic-pituitary thyroid and gonadal axes [ 3, 6 ]. [karger.com]
