Description
Summary:	Aims: Extrahepatic autoimmune diseases are frequently encountered in patients with autoimmune liver diseases (AILD). There is a very limited data in the literature on the incidence of autoimmune thyroid diseases in AILD and the characterization of thyroid diseases in these patients. This study evaluated frequency and clinical features of thyroid disorders in AILD. Methods: We compared clinical and laboratory data and thyroid ultrasonography findings of 100 patients with AILD and 48 healthy controls. Results: The frequency of autoimmune thyroid disease and nodularity was higher in the AILD group compared to the control group (34 % vs 12.1 %; p
