Thyroid cancer is the most frequent endocrine malignancy, and its worldwide increase incidence has been recently reported. However, both the cause of this alarming increase and its impact on the public health remain to be determined. In this review, we propose a brief update of thyroid cancer and its relevant risk factors in the light of new published data in the field. We also summarize data concerning the thyroid cancer in Morocco as well as its incidence. Finally, we propose some recommendations for a better management of thyroid cancer in Morocco.
