Gastric emptying function changes in patients with thyroid cancer after withdrawal of thyroid hormone therapy

Background:  Hypothyroidism is commonly thought to cause decreased gastric emptying but is mostly associated with autoimmune disease. In the present study the gastric emptying function of thyroid cancer patients with severe hypothyroidism of short duration was evaluated with a radionuclide solid meal gastric emptying study.
