Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most prevalent thyroid neoplasm, classified into BRAF-like and RAS-like subtypes. Nuclear alterations serve as a diagnostic criterion of PTC and are fully manifested in BRAF-like. This single-center retrospective study aimed to assess the different presentation of nuclear features in 40 samples of BRAFV600E- and 40 samples of RAS-mutated PTCs using both bivariate and multivariate analytic approaches.

Hematogenous distant metastases are a sign of an advanced stage of the tumour.

It traditionally manifests in older patients and at an advanced stage which results in minimal improvement in prognosis despite the recent advances in management.
