 A Corrigendum on To Lighten the Burden of Cure: Thyroid Disease in Long-Term Survivors After TBI Conditioning for Paediatric ALL by Zubarovskaya, N., Bauer, D., Ronceray, L., Poetschger, U., Kurzmann, P., Lender, C., Kuzmina, Z., and Lawitschka, A.

In the original article, there was an error in the Discussion section, paragraph ten. “We learned that thyroid damage after HSCT is multifactorial and has a direct impact on rates of cGvHD.” was inaccurately worded resulting in a false representation of the intended message. The corrected paragraph appears below.

“In conclusion, in the long-term follow-up of paediatric patients with ALL after HSCT with TBI-based conditioning, we found a high incidence of both functional and structural thyroid disorders, with incidence increasing over time. We learned that thyroid damage after HSCT is multifactorial and it is without a direct impact of cGvHD. However, we found a significant correlation between humoral immune dysregulation and the development of thyroid dysfunction. Therefore, we suggest adding the evaluation of humoral immune dysfunction to the regular thyroid follow-up of patients post HSCT, including laboratory tests and ultrasound examination of the thyroid gland. The early implementation of hormonal replacement therapy as a strategy to prevent thyroid adenoma and carcinoma after paediatric HSCT needs to be proven in a prospective, multicentre study.”

The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
