Overview
Papillary thyroid cancer may be classified according to histological subtypes. The most common subtypes include conventional, follicular and tall cell form.
Classification
- WHO classification of papillary thyroid cancer is as follows:[1]
- Papillary microcarcinoma (<1 cm)
- Encapsulated
- Follicular
- Diffuse sclerosing
- Tall cell
- Columnar cell
- Cribriform-morular APC
- Hobnail (micropapillary/discohesive)
- Fibromatosis/ Fasciitis-like stroma
- Solid/Trabecular
- Oncocytic
- Spindle cell
- Clear cell
- Warthin-like
- Another classification system for papillary thyroid cancer is:[2]
- Conventional
- Follicular variant
- Papillary microcarcinoma
- Tall cell
- Oncocytic
- Columnar cell
- Diffuse sclerosing
- Solid
- Clear cell
- Cribriform morular
- Macrofollicular
- PTC with prominent hobnail features
- PTC with fasciitis-like stroma
- Combined papillary and medullary carcinoma
- PTC with dedifferentiation to anaplastic carcinoma
