Popis: Results of the study revealed the oncological process to show less favorable clinicopathologicalfeatures in patients with thyroid cancer (TC) only as compared to TC comorbid by bening thyroidneoplasms. It determines that TC accompanied by other thyroid lesions exhibited better prognosticfeatures such as low proportion of male patients, smaller size of primary tumor due to elevated numberof cases with thyroid microcarcinoma, low proportion of biologically aggressive medullary TC.
