Thyro-gastric autoimmunity has not been previously evaluated in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC), although its long-term complications may be relevant for the management of DTC patients. We assessed the prevalence of gastric autoimmunity and autoimmune gastritis (AG) in patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and concomitant DTC. Prevalence of parietal cell antibody (PCA) positivity, iron deficiency anemia (IDA), and pernicious anemia (PA) were prospectively assessed in 150 DTC patients referred for radioiodine ablation after total thyroidectomy. Patients were classified as HT (n = 31) and non-HT (n = 119) based on a combination of serological, ultrasonographic, and histological findings. Patients with PCA positivity were subsequently addressed to endoscopy for confirmation of atrophy body gastritis, required for the diagnosis of AG. For all the variables under study, a comparison between groups was made using Fisher's exact test and appropriate parametric and non-parametric tests. PCA positivity was significantly more prevalent in HT than in non-HT patients (12.9 vs 1.6 %, p = 0.017). After Hp eradication, a reversal of PCA positivity was observed in 3/4 patients in the HT group. IDA and PA did not differ significantly between groups. In the HT group, only one patient had endoscopical confirmation of mild gastric corporal atrophy. Gastric autoimmunity shows higher prevalence in patients with DTC and concomitant HT than in patients with DTC alone; however, in most cases, PCA positivity was associated with Hp infection. Furthermore, although previous reports found up to one-third of patients with HT to have associated AG, in our cohort AG was extremely rare.
