Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is a somewhat puzzling disease, combining a propensity to metastasize with an indolent clinical course. The often pronounced T celldominated inflammatory infiltrate seen in PTC tumors has prompted us to search for signs of a tumor-induced immune response. In previou
Cytokeratin 19 is the lowest molecular weight cytokeratin and is found in a diverse range of normal epithelia and tumors. 1 On histologic sections, cytokeratin 19 has been expressed in all tumor cells of thyroid papillary carcinomas, but it has been absent or only focally present in follicular neopl
