Follicular variant of papillary thyroid cancer typically favors nodal spread. We report a case with hematogenous spread including multi-organ involvement and describe our staged management approach. This is the first case to report follicular variant of papillary thyroid cancer with simultaneous adrenal and renal involvement.

Primary thyroid B-cell lymphoma: molecular insights into its clonal evolution and relapse.
J Pathol
December 2024
Department of Pathology, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK.
Primary thyroid lymphomas comprise largely extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (EMZL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), followed by follicular lymphoma (FL). They commonly develop from a background of Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT), where dysregulated immune responses trigger autoreactive infiltrates and drive clonal B-cell evolution. To understand how these lymphomas and their relapse evolve, we investigated 10 cases by mutation profiling, including five with metachronous lymphomas [primary lymphoma (EMZL = 4, DLBCL = 1) with local relapse (EMZL = 3, DLBCL = 2)], one composite EMZL and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-positive DLBCL, and four lymphomas (EMZL = 3, FL = 1) with prior or subsequent biopsy showing HT.

Department of Nuclear Medicine, Hospital 108, Hanoi, Vietnam.
Objective: Identifying prognostic markers for clinical outcomes is crucial in selecting appropriate treatment options for patients with radioiodine-refractory (RAI-R) differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC). The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of clinico-pathological features and semiquantitative [F]FDG PET/CT metabolic parameters in predicting progression-free survival (PFS) in DTC patients with RAI-R.
Patients And Methods: This prospective cohort study included 110 consecutive RAI-R DTC patients who were referred for [F]FDG PET/CT imaging.
Recent progress in pathological understanding of adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma in the new classification era.

Article Synopsis
- Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is a type of cancer linked to HTLV-1 virus infection, with the WHO's new 5th Edition classification outlining essential and desirable diagnostic criteria for its identification.
- A new diagnostic method combining HBZ-ISH and tax-PCR enhances detection of HTLV-1 in cases where only preserved tissue samples are available, alongside traditional Southern blot techniques.
- The review addresses the morphological and phenotypic characteristics of ATLL, noting the prevalence of certain phenotypes, genetic abnormalities, and emphasizing the need for further research and classification in understanding the disease's complex nature.
Presentation and Management of Highly Differentiated Follicular Carcinoma of Ovarian Origin With Gene Variants.

Struma ovarii (SO) is a rare subtype of ovarian teratoma composed of more than 50% thyroid tissue. Extraovarian spread of SO, called peritoneal strumosis, was previously considered benign given the lack of histological malignant features. However, the 2020 World Health Organization Classification of Female Genital Tumors reclassified peritoneal strumosis as highly differentiated follicular carcinoma of ovarian origin (HDFCO), highlighting its low-grade malignant potential.

Background: Patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma have a 10 year survival rate of more than 95%. However, the existence of spinal metastases significantly reduces overall survival. In this study, we review the epidemiology and outcomes of patients with thyroid malignancies with spinal metastases.
