Diffuse sclerosing variant is an uncommon subtype of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). The clinical presentation often resembles Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Histopathological features are similar to conventional PTC; however, diffuse involvement of both lobes, extensive cervical lymphadenopathy, numerous psammoma bodies, extensive lymphocytic infiltrates, and fibrosis suggest a high possibility of this rare variant.
弥漫性硬化型是乳头状甲状腺癌(PTC)的一种罕见亚型。其临床表现常类似于桥本甲状腺炎。组织病理学特征与传统PTC相似;然而,双侧叶弥漫性受累、广泛的颈部淋巴结肿大、大量砂粒体、广泛的淋巴细胞浸润和纤维化提示这种罕见亚型的可能性很大。
