Correlation between BRAF mutation and the clinicopathological parameters in papillary thyroid carcinoma with particular reference to follicular variant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Mutation of the BRAF gene is common in thyroid cancer. Follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma is a variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma that has created continuous diagnostic controversies among pathologists. The aims of this study are to (1)

Bilateral Symmetry and Variation of Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve and Inferior Thyroid Artery Patterns: An Intraoperative Study of 150 Nerves

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The anatomical relationship of the inferior thyroid artery (ITA) and the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is highly variable. This study aims to evaluate bilateral RLN branching patterns and their relationship to the ITA within the same patient, predicting contralateral anatomical variations and ultimately reducing intraoperative risk of RLN ...

Differentiating follicular thyroid carcinoma from the follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Introduction: Differentiating follicular adenoma (FA), follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) and follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (FVPTC) remain a diagnostic challenge in some cases. This is as a result of the assessment of nuclear features

Application of Immunohistochemistry in Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma

open access: yes, 2022
Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is an economic and precise method to localize the presence of specific protein at cellular level in tissue. Although many papillary thyroid carcinomas do not require IHC to render a diagnosis, there are certain scenarios in ...

Clinical, Radiologic and Cytologic Predictors of Malignancy in Pediatric Thyroid Nodules: Insights From a 26‐Year Cohort Study

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Thyroid nodules are less common but more often malignant in pediatric patients than in adults. Our objectives were to study the features of benign vs. malignant thyroid nodules in a large pediatric patient cohort. Methods Retrospective observational cohort study. Consecutive patients aged 0.01–17.9 years at evaluation between 1997–

Malignancy risk analysis in patients with inadequate fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of the thyroid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background Thyroid fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is the standard diagnostic modality for thyroid nodules. However, it has limitations among which is the incidence of non-diagnostic results (Thy1).

Preoperative Prediction of Cervical Lymph Node Metastasis in Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma Using Arterial Enhancement Fraction Derived From Dual‐Layer Spectral CT

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of arterial enhancement fraction (AEF) derived from dual‐layer detector spectral CT (DLCT) in preoperative assessment of cervical lymph node metastasis in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), and to compare its performance with other spectral CT quantitative parameters and conventional CT ...

Quantitative Immunomorphological Analysis of Heat Shock Proteins in Thyroid Follicular Adenoma and Carcinoma Tissues Reveals Their Potential for Differential Diagnosis and Points to a Role in Carcinogenesis

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
Hsp27, Hsp60, Hsp70, and Hsp90 are chaperones that play a crucial role in cellular homeostasis and differentiation, but they may be implicated in carcinogenesis. Follicular neoplasms of the thyroid include follicular adenoma and follicular carcinoma. The

Strain and Shear Wave Elastography in Thyroid Nodules: Tissue Stiffness as a Complementary Risk Marker for Differentiating Benign, Indeterminate, and Malignant Cytology

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic performance of shear wave elastography (SWE) and strain elastography (SE) as complementary techniques to conventional B‐mode ultrasound for differentiating benign, indeterminate, and malignant thyroid nodules. Methods This prospective cross‐sectional study included 208 thyroid nodules evaluated using B‐mode

Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma: novel therapeutic targets and strategies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) is one of the most aggressive human malignancies, with a mean survival of only 6 months. Therefore, novel therapeutic approaches are desperately required. - dl1520 is a replication competent adenovirus that, due to lack
