Papillary thyroid carcinoma: an update [PDF]
The past two decades have seen numerous developments in the understanding of the origins and biology of papillary thyroid carcinoma. Advances in molecular biology, clinicopathologic studies of new entities, facility with fine-needle aspiration biopsy, and new radiologic imaging techniques have allowed for earlier diagnosis of these tumors.

Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma and Inflammation [PDF]
The relationship between cancer and inflammation is well known since 1863 when Rudolf Virchow, following the observation of leukocytes in neoplastic tissues, hypothesized that chronic inflammation could contribute to the tumorigenic process. In the following decades, several lines of evidence suggested a strong association between chronic inflammation ...

The encapsulated papillary carcinoma of the thyroid a morphologic subtype of the papillary thyroid carcinoma [PDF]
Of a total of 182 papillary neoplasms, 25 lesions (average size, 3.1 cm) were classified on cytologic and histologic grounds as being encapsulated carcinomas. In eight of these tumors (32.2%) cervical lymph node metastasis and/or intraglandular lymphatic spread was observed.

Anomalous papillary carcinoma of the thyroid [PDF]
Most papillary carcinomas of the thyroid run a surprisingly indolent clinical course, and even widespread lymph node metastases in the neck are not a bad prognostic omen. A small group behaves in a far more aggressive fashion and kills through local invasion of adjacent structures or blood borne metastases.

Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma Variants [PDF]
Papillary thyroid carcinomas are the most common thyroid cancers and constitute more than 70% of thyroid malignancies. The most common etiologic factor is radiation, but genetic susceptibility and other factors also contribute to the development of papillary thyroid carcinoma.

BRAF in Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma
Novel genetic findings about papillary thyroid carcinoma identify BRAF gene as a subject of great interest. Involvement of BRAF gene in pathogenesis of PTC, diagnostic value and the putative prognostic significance of its T1799A mutation are summarized in this article.

Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma: An Overview
Abstract Papillary carcinoma is the most common malignant tumor of the thyroid. It has a variable macroscopic appearance that differs according to the variant microscopic morphologies and the presence or absence of degenerative changes. The histologic variants can be challenging to the pathologist, and some are of clinical significance ...

Hashimoto Thyroiditis Coexistent with Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma [PDF]
Several studies report a higher rate of papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTC) in patients with Hashimoto thyroiditis (HT), indicating a possible correlation between the two diseases. We studied a group of 89 subjects undergoing surgery for thyroid carcinomas compared with a control group of 89 subjects operated on for normofunctioning goiter, and a second

Pheochromocytoma, papillary thyroid carcinoma
A 53-year-old woman presented with labile and difficult to control hypertension on 3 different anti-hypertensive medications. Abdominal computed tomography and ultrasonography of the thyroid gland showed a 1.8 cm thyroid nodule. Fine needle aspiration biopsy of the thyroid nodule revealed papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Papillary thyroid carcinoma in paediatric age
In children, differentiated thyroid carcinoma is a rare condition. Early diagnosis is not always easy, because of the lack of clinical symptoms, but it has a pivotal role in performing a correct therapeutic process. The study describes three cases of papillary thyroid carcinoma.
