Title: Fine-needle aspiration cytology of papillary Hürthle-cell tumors of thyroid: a report of three cases. Author: Chen KT. Journal: Diagn Cytopathol; 1991; 7(1):53-6. PubMed ID: 1709087. Abstract: Papillary Hürthle-cell tumors of the thyroid are composed of oxyphilic cells with a prominent papillary component. Their biologic behavior appears to be comparable with that of conventional papillary thyroid carcinomas. The literature on the fine-needle aspiration cytology of these tumors is scanty. The cytologic findings of three such cases are reported here. The findings suggest that most papillary Hürthle-cell tumors cannot be differentiated from other types of Hürthle-cell tumors cytologically.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
