Ceskoslovenska Patologie
|April 18, 2023
Summary
Warthin-like papillary thyroid carcinoma, a rare variant, has an excellent prognosis and is often linked to lymphocytic thyroiditis. Histological diagnosis is typically straightforward, aiding in identifying this uncommon thyroid cancer.
Area of Science:
- Endocrinology
- Oncology
- Pathology
Background:
- Warthin-like papillary thyroid carcinoma (WLPTC) is a rare variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma.
- It is characterized by a favorable prognosis and is frequently associated with lymphocytic thyroiditis.
- Its histological features mimic Warthin's tumor of salivary glands.

Dermis
The dermis might be considered the "core" of the integumentary system, as distinct from the epidermis and hypodermis. It contains blood and lymph vessels, nerves, and other structures, such as hair follicles and sweat glands. The dermis is made of two layers of connective tissue that comprise an interconnected mesh of elastin and collagenous fibers, produced by fibroblasts.
Papillary Layer
The papillary layer is made of loose, areolar connective tissue, which means the collagen...

Tumor suppressor genes are normal genes that can slow down cell division, repair DNA mistakes, or program the cells for apoptosis in case of irreparable damage. Hence, they play an essential role in preventing the proliferation of damaged cells.
The first-ever tumor suppressor gene called Rb was identified in retinoblastoma - a rare eye tumor in children. In inherited forms of the disease, a child inherits one defective copy of the Rb gene, which predisposes them to retinoblastoma. However,...
