Crile and Hazard reported in 1953 a follicular pattern of papillary thyroid carcinoma. Little has been said about this pattern in the cytologic literature. From more than 8,000 thyroid aspirates in our files, we reviewed all those diagnosed as ''follicular variant of papillary carcinoma,'' ''suspect
## Background: The follicular variant of papillary carcinoma (fvpc) presents significant diagnostic difficulty using fine-needle aspiration (fna). diagnoses by fna vary considerably and usually are categorized as follicular proliferations. ## Methods: Conventional papanicolaou, diff-quik, and hem
