Molecular pathology of papillary, follicular and Hürthle cell carcinomas of the thyroid.
In the review some of the molecular alterations that can relate to the neoplastic development of well differentiated thyroid carcinomas (follicular and papillary carcinoma) and of the so-called Hürthle cell carcinomas are described. Diagnostic and/or prognostic significance of the most recent findings is discussed.
