Abstract

The aim of the work is to study the clinical and morphological features of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) with the autoimmune thyroiditis Hashimoto (TH)
Material and methods. 236 clinical observations of patients with PTC of the surgical hospital of he State Institution of Science "Research and Practical Centre of Preventive and Clinical Medicine" State Administrative Department during 2012-2018 were investigated. We study the size of the tumor, the presence of invasions in the thyroid tissue and in the capsule of the gland, multifocal growth, metastases in the lymph nodes of group 6 and metastases in the lymph nodes of 2,3,4 groups. For statistical analysis, Fischer' sex act test and Student's t-criterion were used. Valuesare interpreted by the trueat p <0,05.
Results.Of the 236 cases of PTC, TH was found in 72 patients (30.5%), in 56 cases- other proliferative-hyperplastic processesor nodal thyroid pathology (23.7%), and 108 cases (45.8%) were without concomitant pathology. There were 142 (60.2%)women with PTC, and 94 (39.8%) men, p <0.05. In patients with PTC and TH were 53 women (73.6%) and 19 men (26.3%), p <0.05. In patients with TH in comparison with the group without concomitant thyropathology, a significantly higher number of microcarcinoma was noted, the size of tumors in TH was lower (with TH 23 (31.9%), without TH 57 (52.8%), p <0.05 ). In patients without TH, carcinoma invasion was more likely to occur in the thyroid tissue (with TH 32 (44.4%), without TH 66 (61.1%), p <0.05), invasion to the capsule of the gland with extra thyroid invasion (with TH 17 (23.6%), without TX 42 (38.9%), p <0.05), multifocal growth (with TH 15 (20.8%), without TH 48 (44.4%), p <0 , 05). Patients with TH more often had metastasis to the lymphnodes of group 6 (with TH36 (50.0%), without TH 43 (39.8%), p <0.05), and in patients without TH, more often in lateral cervical lymphnodes (with TC 7 (9.7%), without TH 31 (28.7%), p <0.05).
Conclusions. 1) PTC with TH more often occur in women. 2) PTC with TH has a less aggressive course regarding the size of the tumor node, intratireoid and extrathyroid invasion, multifocal growth, and metastasis in lateral cervical lymphnodes.
