Abstract

In the July 2019 issue of Thyroid (vol. 29, no. 7; 1018–1022) the article entitled “Wide Spectrum of DUOX2 Deficiency: From Life-Threatening Compressive Goiter in Infancy to Lifelong Euthyroidism” by Dufort et al. requires correction.
The length of the novel deletion reported on page 1019 was incorrect. The original data read:
Patient 1 harbored a previously described missense mutation (p.G1518S) known to abolish DUOX2 activity (2), as well as a novel 540 base-pair deletion spanning from intron 5 to exon 7 (NM_014080.4:c.513 + 53_818del, expected to be deleterious). No other variants were found by exome sequencing.
The data has been revised to:
Patient 1 harbored a previously described missense mutation (p.G1518S) known to abolish DUOX2 activity (2), as well as a novel
The online version of the article has been corrected to reflect this. The authors apologize for the error.
