In acromegaly, chronic growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) exacerbate comorbidities in multiple organs. Differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) has been reported as being a comorbid condition in acromegaly. Acromegaly is usuallysporadic, but 5% of cases may be genetic. The most frequent inheritable form of acromegaly is related to germline mutations in the aryl hydrocarbon receptor interacting protein (AIP) gene. Epidemiological data on the relationship between active acromegaly, its familial forms and DTC are sparse. We present the investigation of aFIPA family (familial isolated pituitary adenoma) with homogeneous acromegaly and 6 sporadic acromegaly patients with DTC. A study of 59 acromegaly patients assessed thyroid nodules on ultrasound and fine-needle aspiration biopsy following the ATA 2015 criteria. We diagnosed 7 differentiated thyroid carcinomas. Resected thyroid carcinoma tissues were stained using an anti-AIP antibody. Analysis of germline and tumor-derived DNA for variants in the AIP and MEN1 genes were performed in the FIPA kindred. We describe one FIPA patient and 6 sporadic acromegaly cases with DTC. The FIPA family (AIP mutation negative) consisted of two sisters, one of whom had a DTC with intermediate risk and incomplete structural response to therapy. In our study, DTC in sporadic acromegaly had a low recurrence rate (6/6), and excellent response to therapy (6/6). Immunohistochemistry for AIP showed similar or increased staining intensity in DTC versus normal thyroid tissue. In our cohort of sporadic and familial forms of acromegaly with DTC, AIP did not appear to influence thyroid cancer progression. In our cohort of sporadic and familial forms of acromegaly with DTC, AIP did not appear to influence thyroid cancer progression.
