It was found that total T3 levels were lowered in cancer patients with anemia in relation with the severity of disease, whiie total T4 levels did not change. The correlation between total T3 and total T4 levels disappeared in all patients with cancer. Total T3 and T 4 levels did not correlate with the haemoglobin levels.
