From more than 8,000 thyroid aspirates in our files, we reviewed all those diagnosed as ''follicular variant of papillary carcinoma,'' ''suspect
The fine-needle aspirates from two histologically, immunohistochemically, and ultrastructurally confirmed encapsulated papillary oncocytic carcinoma of the thyroid revealed large and small papillary tumor tissue fragments consisting of fibrovascular cores covered with polygonal cells showing abundan
