Follicular patterned lesions of the thyroid are problematic and interpretation is often subjective. While thyroid experts are comfortable with their own criteria and thresholds, those encountering these lesions sporadically have a degree of uncertainty with a proportion of cases.

Realizing this pathologic pitfall in thyroid diagnosis, the need for meticulous examination of the pa...
