Article Synopsis
- High-grade follicular cell-derived non-anaplastic thyroid carcinomas are rare tumors, particularly in patients under 21, and are more commonly diagnosed in older adults.
- A study focused on 15 patients aged 9-20 revealed various classifications of thyroid carcinoma, including poorly differentiated and differentiated high-grade types, with specific genetic alterations noted, especially in the DICER1 and TP53 genes.
- Immunohistochemistry tests indicated the presence of BRAF V600E mutations and PTEN alterations, highlighting the molecular complexity of these thyroid cancers in younger populations.
