## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (FVPTC) is a common subtype of papillary thyroid carcinoma. Few studies have compared the clinical behavior and treatment outcome of patients with FVPTC with the outcome of patients with pure papillary carcinoma (PTC).
## Background: Detection of follicular variant (fv) of papillary carcinoma (pc) of the thyroid is considered difficult in cytology. various ancillary studies have been used to increase the sensitivity in the detection of fvpc in fine-needle aspiration (fna). we previously reported that the clear nu
