Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common primary thyroid malignancy. PTC is diagnosed based on its hallmark nuclear characteristics, but a myriad of histological variants has been identified some of which can be diagnostically challenging due to its rarity and overlapping histomorphology with other entities. We report a rare variant of PTC with lymphoepithelial features which lacked association with Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV). In such cases, a thorough workup to rule out metastasis from other sites should be undertaken.
甲状腺乳头状癌（PTC）是最常见的原发性甲状腺恶性肿瘤。PTC是根据其标志性核特征进行诊断的，但已发现了无数种组织学变体，其中一些由于其罕见性以及与其他实体的组织形态学重叠，在诊断上具有挑战性。我们报告了一种具有淋巴上皮特征的罕见PTC变体，其与爱泼斯坦-巴尔病毒（EBV）无关。在这种情况下，应进行全面检查以排除其他部位的转移。
