Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Context:

  • Thyroid carcinoma is a rare malignancy, accounting for about 1% of all human cancers.
  • Classification is based on cell of origin (follicular vs. C-cell) and differentiation grade (differentiated, poorly differentiated, anaplastic).
  • Distinct biological and genetic profiles necessitate tailored therapeutic approaches.

Purpose:

  • To review the key aspects of various thyroid carcinoma types.
  • To cover definition, epidemiology, clinical course, prognosis, differential diagnosis, and genetic background.
  • To provide a comprehensive overview for clinicians and pathologists.

Summary:

  • This review details the classification of thyroid carcinoma based on cellular origin and differentiation.
