Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Autoimmune thyroid diseases are very common in the general population, and in recent decades there has also been an increase in the incidence and mortality of thyroid cancer. Furthermore, the widespread use of new oncological therapies, including immunotherapy, has brought out new thyroid side effects that require rapid identification and medical management to minimize the impact on patients already suffering from the neoplastic disease. Several data have also demonstrated that there is an association between autoimmune thyroid diseases, thyroid cancers, and other autoimmune immune diseases, both systemic and organ specific, such as systemic sclerosis, LES, psoriasis, and arthritis. Last but not least, in preliminary studies, a certain impact of the SARS-CoV2 pandemic on the functionality and homeostasis of the immune system, with subsequent autoimmune sequelae, emerged, further expanding the exposed population to these clinical conditions. For these reasons, with this Special Issue, we would like to collect original articles and reviews that aim to expand and update the knowledge regarding the pathophysiology and clinical management of the broad spectrum of autoimmune and thyroid diseases, with a specific focus on their interactions.
