While the frequency of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) has increased in recent decades, both due to improvements in diagnostic procedures and a real, effective percentage increase in cases, the frequency of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), however, has remained almost unchanged, representing 3-5% of thyroid cancer cases. Our experience relates to the observation of cases with the synchronous presence of PTC and MTC, also in chronic autoimmune thyroiditis, and this led us to carry out a brief review of the literature on the subject, with the aim above all of identifying the most correct postoperative therapeutic process.

Thyroid cancer remains one of the leading endocrine malignancies with Conventional Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma (CVPTC) being the most commonly reported cancer. Caseating granulomatous inflammation is an unusual presentation in the thyroid even in places with high incidence of tuberculosis. The association of CVPTC with caseating granulomatous inflammation is infrequent.

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are closely associated with human tumorigenesis; however, whether hsa_circ_0004846 serves a role in the progression of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) remains unclear. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the effect of hsa_circ_0004846 on PTC. The results demonstrated that circ_0004846 was abnormally upregulated in PTC tissues and thyroid cancer cell lines (BCPAP, TPC-1 and IHH-4).

Papillary thyroid tumor thrombosis of the internal jugular vein (IJV) is a rarely observed phenomenon with fewer than 30 cases reported to date. The clinical features and underlying pathogenesis of tumor thrombosis are not well-elucidated. A PRISMA-compliant systematic review was conducted, yielding 20 studies eligible for analysis.

Introduction: This study explores the presence and clinical significance of Epstein- Barr Virus (EBV) and Human Papillomavirus (HPV) in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). EBV and HPV are known to contribute to various cancers, but their roles in thyroid cancer development are debated.

Method: Paraffin-embedded tissue blocks from PTC patients (n=255) who underwent thyroid surgery between 2020 and 2021 were analyzed for EBV and HPV DNA using PCR-based methods.
