Noninvasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary-like nuclear features (NIFTP) can be differentiated from invasive encapsulated follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (eFV-PTC) by the presence of a tumor capsule or blood vessel invasion in histological examination. The objective of this study was to investigate whether it is possible to distinguish between NIFTP and invasive eFV-PTC before surgery. Patients diagnosed with NIFTP and invasive eFV-PTC from 2017 to 2023 were analyzed for biochemical, ultrasonographic, and cytological features.

  • Sarcoid-like reaction (SLR) is an immune response affecting lymph nodes and organs, which doesn't fulfill the criteria for systemic sarcoidosis, and can be associated with certain diseases like Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) and Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
  • A 60-year-old male patient with treated CLL developed ALS symptoms following exposure to Venetoclax and Rituximab, presenting with rashes and weakness that progressed over a year.
  • Diagnosis complications included atypical signs and symptoms, leading to misdiagnosis of neurosarcoidosis and challenges in treatment, despite initial interventions with prednisolone and infliximab.
