The relationship between Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and thyroid cancer (TC) is a
controversial topic; it remains unclear if HT acts as a risk factor of TC. The aim of our study …

This prospective study investigates the relationship between Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT)
and thyroid cancer (TC) in patients with thyroid nodules (TNs). We prospectively examined …

Abstract Introduction: The relationship between Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and thyroid
cancer (TC) is controversial. While most surgical studies report a high incidence of …

The possible association between Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and papillary thyroid
carcinoma (PTC) is a still debated issue. We analyzed the frequency of PTC, TSH levels and …

Background Higher-but-within-normal thyrotropin (thyroid-stimulating hormone, TSH) is
