Introduction: The association between papillary thyroid carcinoma and thyroiditis was first reported in 1955 by Daily, in 2023 if this association is well established, it still continues to be talked about. Does cancer associated with thyroiditis have a better prognosis?
Material and Methods: We report a prospective study carried out in a hospital center in Algeria between 2020 and 2023 which included 267 papillary thyroid cancers, of which 97 (36.3%) patients had thyroiditis. 85 (87.6%) of the patients who had an association with thyroiditis were women with a sex ratio of 3.29; their mean age was 42.79 ± 1.16 years. In thyroiditis, tumor size was smaller (OR 0.51), with less vascular invasion (OR 0.39) but more multifocality (OR 1.75), with no statistically significant difference in thyroid invasion and lymph node metastases compared to patients without thyroiditis.
Discussion: The association of papillary thyroid cancer with thyroiditis has generated many studies worldwide, but it is difficult to make comparisons because of their heterogeneity; however, our study seems to be in agreement with the results obtained by a majority of studies already published.
Conclusion: The association of papillary thyroid cancer with thyroiditis seems to be a factor of better prognosis.
