Cancer and autoimmune diseases are often associated in the same individual. The functional link between the immune system and cancer development is only partially known.

In particular, the association between autoimmune thyroiditis and thyroid cancer (TC; especially papillary carcinoma) is a fascinating model of this complex relationship. In this review, we present data reported in literature about autoimmune thyroiditis and papillary TC, and on the basis of available data, we try to clarify the present knowledge.
