Correction to: Thyroid 2016;26:1343–1421. DOI: 10.1089/thy.2016.0229

In the October 2016 issue of Thyroid (vol. 26, no.10; 1343–1421), the article entitled “2016 American Thyroid Association Guidelines for Diagnosis and Management of Hyperthyroidism and Other Causes of Thyrotoxicosis” by Ross et al. requires correction.

Recommendation 58 on page 1369 should read as follows:

^■ RECOMMENDATION 58

Children with GD should be treated with MMI, RAI therapy, or thyroidectomy. RAI therapy should be avoided in very young children (<5 years). RAI therapy in children is acceptable if the activity is >150 μCi/g (5.55 MBq/g) of thyroid tissue, and for children between 5 and 10 years of age if the calculated RAI administered activity is <10 mCi (<370 MBq). Thyroidectomy should be chosen when definitive therapy is required, the child is too young for RAI, and surgery can be performed by a high-volume thyroid surgeon.

The online version of the article has been corrected to reflect this change. The authors apologize for this error.
