Genetic polymorphisms of DNA repair genes seem to determine the DNA repair capacity. We hypothesized that polymorphisms of genes responsible for DNA repair may be associated with risk of thyroid cancer. To evaluate the role of genetic polymorphisms of DNA repair genes in thyroid cancer, we conducted a hospital-based case-control study in Saudi population. Two hundred and twenty-three incident papillary thyroid...
