Overview
On biopsy, papillary thyroid cancer is characterized by trabecular, solid, follicular tumor cells that invade tumor capsule or surrounding vascular structures.
Key Biopsy Findings in Follicular Thyroid Cancer
- Characteristic Orphan Annie eye nuclear inclusions (nuclei with uniform staining, which appear empty)[1] and psammoma bodies on light microscopy. The former is useful in identifying the follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinomas.[2]
- Histologically papillary carcinoma demonstrates 'delicate stalks of epithelial cells' which account for its name.
