Pernicious anemia and endocrine glands antibodies.

CONCLUSIONS: In patients with PA, a screening for autoimmune thyroid disease is justified, which should first involve the determination of TPOAb (further TgAb) in the blood. The assessment of antithyroid antibodies should be recommended primarily to patients with PA who have IFAb or/and APCA and in particular those with with concurrent IFAb and APCA.
