title: [Breast cancer in thyroid diseases].
abstract: The authors have analyzed 48 cases of breast cancer detected among more than 16,000 patients with thyroid pathology including thyroid carcinoma. It was established that breast cancer associated with thyroid pathology (thyroid cancer included) had specific features of the clinical course. Relative risk of breast carcinoma in thyroid cancer patients was not higher than the incidence in female population. Possible etiologic and pathogenic factors of the relationship between thyroid pathology and breast tumors are discussed. It is supposed that hypersecretion of prolactin and gonadotropins might play some role in such association. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy for breast carcinoma also can be predisposing factors to the development of subsequent thyroid pathology.
