ABSTRACT
Hypothyroidism is a common complication in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma after radiotherapy, and its incidence is mainly associated with clinical factors, such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy, sex, age and clinical stage, etc. The normal tissue complication probability models of radiation-induced hypothyroidism can be established by using related factors, which can be employed to screen the high-risk patients. In this article, clinical factors related to radiation-induced hypothyroidism were summarized, aiming to prevent the early radiation-induced hypothyroidism, reduce the incidence of hypothyroidism and improve the quality of life of patients.
