Papillary microcarcinoma is a subset of papillary thyroid cancer defined as measuring less than or equal to 1 cm. [15] The highest incidence of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma in an autopsy series was reported by Harach et al. in 1985, who found 36 of 101 consecutive autopsies to have an incidental microcarcinoma.

Histopathology of NIFTP, H&E stain. [1]Noninvasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary-like nuclear features (NIFTP) is an indolent thyroid tumor that was previously classified as an encapsulated follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma, [2] necessitating a new classification as it was recognized that encapsulated tumors without invasion have an indolent behavior, [2] and may ...
Thyroid neoplasm is a neoplasm or tumor of the thyroid. It can be a benign tumor such as thyroid adenoma, [1] or it can be a malignant neoplasm (thyroid cancer), such as papillary, follicular, medullary or anaplastic thyroid cancer. [2] Most patients are 25 to 65 years of age when first diagnosed; women are more affected than men.
Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (also known as "Pheochromocytoma (codons 630 and 634) and amyloid producing medullary thyroid carcinoma", [1] "PTC syndrome," [1] and "Sipple syndrome" [1]) is a group of medical disorders associated with tumors of the endocrine system.
Psammoma bodies are commonly seen in certain tumors such as: Papillary thyroid carcinoma [2]; Papillary renal cell carcinoma [3]; Ovarian papillary serous cystadenoma and cystadenocarcinoma [4]
Thyroid cancer accounts for less than 1% of cancer cases and deaths in the UK. Around 2,700 people were diagnosed with thyroid cancer in the UK in 2011, and around 370 people died from the disease in 2012. [70] However, in South Korea, thyroid cancer was the 5th most prevalent cancer, which accounted for 7.7% of new cancer cases in 2020. [71]
Nuclear grooves (arrows indicate one of them) in papillary thyroid cancer. H&E stain. Cytopathology of papillary thyroid carcinoma, with typical features, with nuclear groove at bottom right. Pap stain. A nuclear groove is an invagination of the nuclear envelope, in the longitudinal axis. [1] It can be present in:
Thyroglossal cyst with papillary excrescences (magnified at right), where microscopy showed papillary thyroid cancer. Rarely (in less than 1% of cases), cancer may be present in a thyroglossal duct cyst. [6] These tumors are generally papillary thyroid carcinomas, [6] arising from the ectopic thyroid tissue within the cyst. [7] [8]
