Introduction: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term mortality and cause of death in patients with thyroid cancer.

Methods: The Korean National Health Insurance Service-Health Screening Cohort data were collected from 2002 to 2013. A total of 5,666 thyroid cancer participants were 1:4 matched with 22,664 control participants for age, sex, income, and region of residence. The crude and adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) for thyroid cancer-associated mortality were analyzed. Subgroup analysis according to cause of death was additionally analyzed.

Results: The thyroid cancer group did not show a significantly higher rate of death according to age group, sex, income, region of residence, obesity, smoking status, alcohol consumption, serum total cholesterol level, blood pressure, and fasting blood glucose. The adjusted HR for mortality was 1.03 (95% CI, 0.85-1.25) in the thyroid cancer group. In subgroup analysis, the thyroid cancer group did not show a significant difference compared to the control group according to any cause of death.

Conclusions: Patients with thyroid cancer did not show a significant difference in long-term mortality rate compared with patients without thyroid cancer. The cause of death did not show a significant difference between the thyroid cancer group and the control group.
