Thyroid cancer is the most frequent endocrine neoplasm in the general population. Common risk factors include gender, radiation exposure, and genetic backgrounds. The association of papillary thyroid cancer and celiac disease has frequently been reported in the literature; however, the association of papillary thyroid cancer and thalassemia trait is rare. Likewise, the association of thalassemia major and celiac disease is also rare. We hereby report a unique case of papillary thyroid cancer in a patient with celiac disease and thalassemia trait.
甲状腺癌是普通人群中最常见的内分泌肿瘤。常见的风险因素包括性别、辐射暴露和遗传背景。文献中经常报道甲状腺乳头状癌与乳糜泻的关联;然而,甲状腺乳头状癌与地中海贫血特质的关联却很罕见。同样,重型地中海贫血与乳糜泻的关联也很罕见。我们在此报告一例患有乳糜泻和地中海贫血特质的患者发生甲状腺乳头状癌的独特病例。
