Follicular Thyroid Cancer overview
Follicular thyroid carcinoma is a cancer that forms in follicular cells of the thyroid. Follicular thyroid cancer constitutes 10 to 15% of all thyroid cancer cases, making it the second most common. Unlike differentiated types, undifferentiated types are rare. Diagnosis of follicular thyroid carcinoma relies on pathologic confirmation of follicular cells devoid of the nuclear atypia seen in papillary thyroid cancer, considering factors like capsular and vascular invasion. Evaluation primarily centers on histological findings, with controversy arising due to variations among pathologists. Treatment modalities for follicular thyroid carcinoma hinge on the stage at presentation. Minimally invasive cases undergo thyroid lobectomy and isthmectomy, while invasive cases necessitate total thyroidectomy, radioiodine ablation, and thyrotropin-suppressing medications. Studies highlight a 2.1-fold increase in recurrence for those skipping radioiodine ablation, reinforcing the standard recommendation of total thyroidectomy followed by radioiodine radiation.
