2023年2月1日 · Follicles comprise the thyroid and are the functional and structural units of the gland. Thyroid cancer is one of the most common endocrine tumors and is classified as differentiated or undifferentiated.

Follicular adenoma and follicular carcinoma of the thyroid gland are tumors of follicular cell differentiation that consist of a microfollicular architecture with follicles lined by cuboidal epithelial cells. A follicular adenoma is a benign encapsulated tumor of the thyroid gland.

Follicular thyroid carcinoma, abbreviated FTC, is an uncommon malignancy of the thyroid gland. It is also known as follicular carcinoma. Usually spread by the hematologic route. PTC usually spreads via lymphatics. Medical school memory device 4 Fs: FNA NOT diagnosable. Far away mets (sometimes). Female predominant. Favourable prognosis.

Follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) is the second most common histological type of thyroid carcinoma. This review aims to summarize the available evidence and guidelines and provide an updated consensus regarding the management of FTC.

Follicular thyroid carcinomas (FTC) represent 6-10 % of all thyroid carcinomas; the evolution of FTC is quite controversial, partly due to frequent changes of the histopathological definition (minimally invasive–MIFTC or widely invasive carcinoma–WIFTC) and treatment strategies adjustments. Objective.

2003年8月26日 · Follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) is the second most common thy-roid malignancy after papillary thyroid carcinoma. The authors studied the clinical course of 132 patients with FTC to determine whether there was a direct relation between the histologic degree of invasion, tumor recurrence, and patient survival. METHODS.

2004年3月15日 · Background: Follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) is the second most common thyroid malignancy after papillary thyroid carcinoma. The authors studied the clinical course of 132 patients with FTC to determine whether there was a direct relation between the histologic degree of invasion, tumor recurrence, and patient survival.

The identification of capsular and vascular invasion is crucial in distinguishing follicular carcinoma from benign follicular adenoma and predicting the tumor's clinical behavior.

2010年6月28日 · Histologically, FTCs display variable morphology ranging from small/medium-sized follicles containing colloid to trabecular or solid growth pattern (Figure 2). The latter tends to be more frequent in widely invasive FTCs, but they can also occur in minimally invasive FTCs.
