Papillary microcarcinoma is a subset of papillary thyroid cancer defined as measuring less than or equal to 1 cm. [15] The highest incidence of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma in an autopsy series was reported by Harach et al. in 1985, who found 36 of 101 consecutive autopsies to have an incidental microcarcinoma.

Histopathology of NIFTP, H&E stain. [1]Noninvasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary-like nuclear features (NIFTP) is an indolent thyroid tumor that was previously classified as an encapsulated follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma, [2] necessitating a new classification as it was recognized that encapsulated tumors without invasion have an indolent behavior, [2] and may ...
A papillary tumor is a tumor shaped like a small mushroom, with its stem attached to the epithelial layer (inner lining) of an organ. [1] [2] It consists of papillae, which are outgrowths that consist of stroma with at least one central blood vessel, surrounded by epithelium. Usually, the epithelium constitutes the true tumor cells, and the ...
Thyroid neoplasm is a neoplasm or tumor of the thyroid. It can be a benign tumor such as thyroid adenoma, [1] or it can be a malignant neoplasm (thyroid cancer), such as papillary, follicular, medullary or anaplastic thyroid cancer. [2] Most patients are 25 to 65 years of age when first diagnosed; women are more affected than men.
Intra-ampullary papillary–tubular neoplasms (IAPN) are precancerous neoplasms of the ampulla of Vater. [1] On histological examination the neoplasms exhibit both papillary and tubular features. [2] IAPN were first described in 2010. [1] They are rare; comprising 0.5% of gastrointestinal tumours. [1]
The 1973 WHO grading system for transitional cell carcinomas (papilloma, G1, G2 or G3) is most commonly used despite being superseded by the 2004 WHO [14] grading for papillary types (papillary neoplasm of low malignant potential [PNLMP], low grade, and high grade papillary carcinoma). High-grade carcinoma typically displays more pleomorphism ...
They cannot be reliably differentiated from low grade papillary urothelial carcinomas using cytology, [1] and their diagnosis (vis-a-vis low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma) has a poor inter-rater reliability. [2] Pathologic grading and staging tumors are: graded by the degree of cellular atypia (G1->G3), and staged: [citation needed ...
This is a shortened version of the second chapter of the ICD-9: Neoplasms. It covers ICD codes 140 to 239 . The full chapter can be found on pages 101 to 144 of Volume 1, which contains all (sub)categories of the ICD-9.
