Molecular profiling of follicular variant of papillary thyroid cancer reveals low-risk noninvasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary-like nuclear features: A paradigm shift to reduce aggressive treatment of indolent tumors

Introduction: Encapsulated follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (EFVPTC) has been reclassified into noninvasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary-like nuclear features (NIFTP) and invasive EFVPTC. NIFTP is considered a low-risk neoplasm. Therefore, follicular variant of papilla...
