On physical examination, violaceous, non pitting, indurated nodules were observed on the dorsa of her hands, distal forearms, and shins (left). A goiter (right, arrow) is also noted. Laboratory testing showed an undetectable thyrotropin level and elevated total and free thyroxine and triiodothyronine levels. Which antibody would be positive in this patient? *
