UPDATE ON THYROID TUMOURS
Moderator: Prof Uma Nahar Saikia
DISCLAIMER
I shall be discussing the changes that have taken place between the
2WHO blue Books which is spread over a period of 13 years
2004 2017
OUTLINE OF PRESENTATION
 Introduction
 Thyroid tumors with follicular pattern
 Hyperplastic versus follicular adenoma
 Encapsulated follicular pattern tumors - FVPTC, NITFP
 Invasion
 Role of IHC
 Role of molecular methods
 Hurthle cell tumors
 Poorly differentiated carcinoma
 TNM classification
 IgG4 related Hashimoto thyroiditis
DR PIERRE MASSON (1880-1959)
“No classification is more difficult to establish than that
of thyroid [carcinomas]……..
……….Of all cancers, they teach, perhaps, the greatest
lessons of humility to histopathologists”
Excerpt from book Human Tumors
JAMA. 2017;317(13):1338-1348. doi:10.1001/jama.2017.2719
J Endocr Soc. 2017 May 1; 1(5): 480–487.
MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT OF
PATHOLOGY
 “Making a correct and timely diagnosis with provision of
sufficient detailed histological information upon which to risk
stratify patients for treatment decisions”
THYROIDTUMOURS WITH FOLLICULAR
PATTERN
 “Bane of the histopathologist”
FOLLICULAR ADENOMAVS HYPERPLASTIC
NODULES
 Adenoma – clonal vs Hyperplastic nodule – polyclonal
 How to assess clonality
 X chromosome inactivation – Only ladies are lucky
 Cytogenetics- numerical chromosome changes 7, 12, 5; translocations
19p & 2p
 Somatic mutations : RAS, PAX8/PPRG, BRAFK601E, GNAS,TSHR
 Is the clonality assessment worth the effort ?
 NO
 Completely removed lesion pose no further risk
FOLLICULAR ADENOMA IN A
MULTINODULAR GOITRE
“Many pathologists do not make the diagnosis of adenoma in a multinodular
gland, preferring to designate all lesions as hyperplastic nodules provided
there is no evidence of malignancy”
-WHO blue book 2017
ENCAPSULATED FOLLICULAR PATTERNED
TUMORS
FOLLICULARVARIANT OF PTC
 Recognized in the mid-1970s
 Defined as a tumour composed of neoplastic follicles rather than papillae,
but with follicular cells showing nuclear features characteristic of PTC
 Two types
 Infiltrative (non-encapsulated)
 Encapsulated
Am J Surg Pathol. 1977;1(2):123-130

Follicular
adenoma
EVFPTC – A CONTROVERSIAL AND
CONTENTIOUS DIAGNOSIS
“..considerable inter-observer and intra-observer variability in the
diagnosis of FVPC seems to result from lack of agreement on the
minimal criteria needed to diagnose FVPC, even among experts”
INCREASING PREVALENCE OF EVFPTC
EVFPTC – FAVOURABLE OUTCOME
Am J Surg Pathol. 2010;34(6):868-872
NON-INVASIVE FOLLICULARTHYROID
NEOPLASMWITH PAPILLARY-LIKE NUCLEAR
FEATURES
 Encapsulation or clear demarcation
 Follicular (micro/nomro/macro) growth pattern with
 <1% Papillae
 No psammoma bodies
 <30% Solid/trabecular/insular growth pattern
 Nuclear score 2-3
 No vascular or capsular invasion
 No tumour necrosis
 No high mitotic activity (<3 per 10 hpf)
NUCLEAR SCORE:VISUAL SCALE
Score 1 Score 2 Score 3
MOST CONTROVERSIAL
 Classification of well-differentiated follicular tumours
 Morphologically and behaviorally intermediate between follicular
adenoma and follicular carcinoma / the follicular variant of papillary
carcinoma
 Hints towards follicular carcinoma (Unpublished data from Dept.)
 Thick capsule favors carcinoma
 >4 mitosis per 10 hpf favors carcinoma
CAPSULAR INVASION
Questionable capsular invasion
CAPSULAR INVASION
While conceptually simple, there is no
consensus as to the definition of the tumor
capsular invasion
- CAP Guidelines
Fletcher CDM, ed. Diagnostic Histopathology of Tumours. 3rd ed.
VASCULAR INVASION
Questionable vascular invasion
VASCULAR INVASION
Questionable vascular invasion
VASCULAR INVASION
True invasion
- Penetration through the vessel wall
- Reaction to the vascular deposit
VASCULAR INVASION
Fletcher CDM, ed. Diagnostic Histopathology of Tumours. 3rd ed.
While there is no standard definition of
“deeper levels,” generally, each level is at a
certain interval (ie, 3 serial sections deeper
or 15-micron intervals) below the original
H&E rather than an immediate serial
section.

Criteria
 >75% cells
 Mahogony cut surface
 Large cells with loss of polarity and centrally
placed nuclei
 Abundant granular cytoplasm – increased
mitochondria
WHY IT DESERVED A SEPARATE CHAPTER?
 Can spread to lymph nodes unlike follicular carcinoma
 Also displays hematogenous spread
 Higher frequency of mitochondrial mutations
 Defect in assembly of multimetric protein – defective oxidative phosphorylation
 Increased mitochondria
 Activation of Beta-catenin and PI3K/AKT/MOR pathway
 Association with PTEN (Cowden syndrome)
 Radio-iodine resistant
POORLY DIFFERENTIATED CARCINOMA
ANDTURIN CONSENSUS
Well differentiated Poorly differentiated Anaplastic
TURIN CONSENSUS
Pattern – Insular,
Alveolar & Solid
Nuclei – Small, irregular dark
chromatin
Mitosis and necrosis
TURIN ALGORITHM
“Immunohistochemistry is usually not
necessary to place a lesion within this
group, except for the confirmation of
follicular-cell derivation if needed”
MEDULLARY MICROCARCINOMA
 In the setting of prophylactic thyroidectomy in germline RET mutation
 Differentiate
 C cell hyperplasia
 Medullary Microcarcinoma (<1 cm )
 Microcarcinoma – potential for metastasis
CRITERIA
 Complex
architecture
 Stromal fibrosis
 C cells infiltrating
the stroma
outside of the
basement
membrane of
thyroid follicle
 Presence of
amyloid
TNM – 8TH AJCC
UPTO 55YEARS IS CONSIDEREDYOUNG 
T3 – REDESIGNED WITH GROSS INVASION
TAKING PRECEDENCE
Minor extrathyroidal extension detected only on histological examination
was removed from the definition ofT3 disease and therefore has no impact
on eitherT category or overall stage
NO CAN BE STATED WITHOUT NODAL
DISSECTION
Pathologic confirmation of lymph node status is not required, and patients
can be classified as having N Zero disease, as long as there is no evidence of
lymph node metastasis on routine preoperative and intraoperative
evaluations
REGIONAL NODAL METASTASIS HAS BEEN
DOWNSTAGED
 N1 disease no longer upstages a patient to stage III
 If <55 years of age - N1 disease is stage I
 If >55 years of age - N1 disease is stage II
 Level VII lymph nodes : previously classified as lateral neck lymph nodes
(N1b) reclassified as central neck lymph nodes (N1a) to be more
anatomically consistent and because level VII presented significant coding
difficulties for tumor registrars, clinicians, and researchers
ANAPLASTIC CARCINOMA IS SHOWN ITS
PLACE !
 Previous editions where all anaplastic thyroid cancers were classified as T4
disease
 Anaplastic cancers will now use the same T definitions as differentiated
thyroid cancer
 RiedelThyroiditis
 Fibrosing variant of Hashimoto thyroiditis (FVHT)
 IgG4-related Hashimoto thyroiditis (IgG4-RHT)
 Graves disease with elevated IgG4 level
Finding FVHT Riedels thyroiditis Fibrosing variant of Hashimotos thyroiditis
Thyroid antibodies Moderate titre High titre
Normal thyroid tissue Sharply demarcated Diffuse involvement
Venulitis Yes No
Extrathyroidal invasion Yes No
Hurthle cells No Yes
Lymphocyte light chains λ-dominant κ-dominant
Plasma cell production Increased IgA (47%) IgG-dominant, IgA (<15%)
Associated autoimmune disease Yes Yes
Associated de Quervain syndrome Yes No
Ultrasound appearance Hypoechoic Hypoechoic
Doppler flow Diminished Enhanced
IGG4 RELATED HASHIMOTOTHYROIDITIS
 Emerging entity
 More progressive course
 Female predilection
 Higher levels of circulating autoantibodies
 Thyroid limited disease may benefit from thyroidectomy and replacement
therapy
IGG4 RELATED HASHIMOTOTHYROIDITIS
 No obliterative
phlebitis
 Lack of
extrathyroidal
extension
 >20 cells / hpf
SUMMARY
 Morphology is of paramount importance in thyroid lesions
 Diagnosis can be achieved with application of objective criteria
 Immunohistochemistry are best supportive
 Molecular diagnostics – RQ PCR, Sanger, NGS
 Role in pre-operative planning following FNAC
 TNM has changed
 Awareness about medullary microcarcinoma & IgG4 Hashimoto thyroiditis
Technically, the name "Hurthle cell" is incorrect,
because the cells described by Hurthle were not
what we now term Hurthle cells; however, the
name is now too engrained in the literature to be
changed

Update on thyroid tumors

  • 1. UPDATE ON THYROID TUMOURS Moderator: Prof Uma Nahar Saikia
  • 2. DISCLAIMER I shall be discussing the changes that have taken place between the 2WHO blue Books which is spread over a period of 13 years 2004 2017
  • 3. OUTLINE OF PRESENTATION  Introduction  Thyroid tumors with follicular pattern  Hyperplastic versus follicular adenoma  Encapsulated follicular pattern tumors - FVPTC, NITFP  Invasion  Role of IHC  Role of molecular methods  Hurthle cell tumors  Poorly differentiated carcinoma  TNM classification  IgG4 related Hashimoto thyroiditis
  • 4. DR PIERRE MASSON (1880-1959) “No classification is more difficult to establish than that of thyroid [carcinomas]…….. ……….Of all cancers, they teach, perhaps, the greatest lessons of humility to histopathologists” Excerpt from book Human Tumors
  • 6. J Endocr Soc. 2017 May 1; 1(5): 480–487.
  • 7. MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT OF PATHOLOGY  “Making a correct and timely diagnosis with provision of sufficient detailed histological information upon which to risk stratify patients for treatment decisions”
  • 8. THYROIDTUMOURS WITH FOLLICULAR PATTERN  “Bane of the histopathologist”
  • 9. FOLLICULAR ADENOMAVS HYPERPLASTIC NODULES  Adenoma – clonal vs Hyperplastic nodule – polyclonal  How to assess clonality  X chromosome inactivation – Only ladies are lucky  Cytogenetics- numerical chromosome changes 7, 12, 5; translocations 19p & 2p  Somatic mutations : RAS, PAX8/PPRG, BRAFK601E, GNAS,TSHR  Is the clonality assessment worth the effort ?  NO  Completely removed lesion pose no further risk
  • 10. FOLLICULAR ADENOMA IN A MULTINODULAR GOITRE “Many pathologists do not make the diagnosis of adenoma in a multinodular gland, preferring to designate all lesions as hyperplastic nodules provided there is no evidence of malignancy” -WHO blue book 2017
  • 12. FOLLICULARVARIANT OF PTC  Recognized in the mid-1970s  Defined as a tumour composed of neoplastic follicles rather than papillae, but with follicular cells showing nuclear features characteristic of PTC  Two types  Infiltrative (non-encapsulated)  Encapsulated Am J Surg Pathol. 1977;1(2):123-130
  • 13. Arch Pathol Lab Med—Vol 137, December 2013

AFIP UNDER J ROSAI RECOMMENDED IN 2014 Capsular invasion Present Questionable Absent Nuclear features of PTC Present Follicular variant of PTC Questionable Well differentiated carcinoma, NOS Well differentiated tumor of uncertain malignant potential Absent Follicular carcinoma Follicular tumor of uncertain malignant potential Follicular adenoma
  • 16. EVFPTC – A CONTROVERSIAL AND CONTENTIOUS DIAGNOSIS “..considerable inter-observer and intra-observer variability in the diagnosis of FVPC seems to result from lack of agreement on the minimal criteria needed to diagnose FVPC, even among experts”
  • 18. EVFPTC – FAVOURABLE OUTCOME Am J Surg Pathol. 2010;34(6):868-872
  • 19.
  • 20.

  • 23. Score 1 Score 2 Score 3
  • 24. MOST CONTROVERSIAL  Classification of well-differentiated follicular tumours  Morphologically and behaviorally intermediate between follicular adenoma and follicular carcinoma / the follicular variant of papillary carcinoma  Hints towards follicular carcinoma (Unpublished data from Dept.)  Thick capsule favors carcinoma  >4 mitosis per 10 hpf favors carcinoma
  • 26. CAPSULAR INVASION While conceptually simple, there is no consensus as to the definition of the tumor capsular invasion - CAP Guidelines Fletcher CDM, ed. Diagnostic Histopathology of Tumours. 3rd ed.
  • 27.
  • 30. VASCULAR INVASION True invasion - Penetration through the vessel wall - Reaction to the vascular deposit
  • 31. VASCULAR INVASION Fletcher CDM, ed. Diagnostic Histopathology of Tumours. 3rd ed. While there is no standard definition of “deeper levels,” generally, each level is at a certain interval (ie, 3 serial sections deeper or 15-micron intervals) below the original H&E rather than an immediate serial section. - CAP
  • 33. Capsular or vascular invasion Present Questionable Absent Nuclear features of PTC Present Invasive encapsulated follicular variant of PTC Well differentiated tumor of uncertain malignant potential Non-invasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary-like nuclear features Questionable Well differentiated carcinoma, NOS Absent Follicular carcinoma Follicular tumor of uncertain malignant potential Follicular adenoma

  • 57.
  • 59. HURTHLE (ONCOCYTIC) CELLTUMORS Criteria  >75% cells  Mahogony cut surface  Large cells with loss of polarity and centrally placed nuclei  Abundant granular cytoplasm – increased mitochondria
  • 60. WHY IT DESERVED A SEPARATE CHAPTER?  Can spread to lymph nodes unlike follicular carcinoma  Also displays hematogenous spread  Higher frequency of mitochondrial mutations  Defect in assembly of multimetric protein – defective oxidative phosphorylation  Increased mitochondria  Activation of Beta-catenin and PI3K/AKT/MOR pathway  Association with PTEN (Cowden syndrome)  Radio-iodine resistant
  • 61. POORLY DIFFERENTIATED CARCINOMA ANDTURIN CONSENSUS Well differentiated Poorly differentiated Anaplastic
  • 62. TURIN CONSENSUS Pattern – Insular, Alveolar & Solid Nuclei – Small, irregular dark chromatin Mitosis and necrosis
  • 63. TURIN ALGORITHM “Immunohistochemistry is usually not necessary to place a lesion within this group, except for the confirmation of follicular-cell derivation if needed”
  • 64. MEDULLARY MICROCARCINOMA  In the setting of prophylactic thyroidectomy in germline RET mutation  Differentiate  C cell hyperplasia  Medullary Microcarcinoma (<1 cm )  Microcarcinoma – potential for metastasis
  • 65. CRITERIA  Complex architecture  Stromal fibrosis  C cells infiltrating the stroma outside of the basement membrane of thyroid follicle  Presence of amyloid
  • 66. TNM – 8TH AJCC
  • 67. UPTO 55YEARS IS CONSIDEREDYOUNG 
  • 68. T3 – REDESIGNED WITH GROSS INVASION TAKING PRECEDENCE Minor extrathyroidal extension detected only on histological examination was removed from the definition ofT3 disease and therefore has no impact on eitherT category or overall stage
  • 69. NO CAN BE STATED WITHOUT NODAL DISSECTION Pathologic confirmation of lymph node status is not required, and patients can be classified as having N Zero disease, as long as there is no evidence of lymph node metastasis on routine preoperative and intraoperative evaluations
  • 70. REGIONAL NODAL METASTASIS HAS BEEN DOWNSTAGED  N1 disease no longer upstages a patient to stage III  If <55 years of age - N1 disease is stage I  If >55 years of age - N1 disease is stage II  Level VII lymph nodes : previously classified as lateral neck lymph nodes (N1b) reclassified as central neck lymph nodes (N1a) to be more anatomically consistent and because level VII presented significant coding difficulties for tumor registrars, clinicians, and researchers
  • 71. ANAPLASTIC CARCINOMA IS SHOWN ITS PLACE !  Previous editions where all anaplastic thyroid cancers were classified as T4 disease  Anaplastic cancers will now use the same T definitions as differentiated thyroid cancer
  • 72.  RiedelThyroiditis  Fibrosing variant of Hashimoto thyroiditis (FVHT)  IgG4-related Hashimoto thyroiditis (IgG4-RHT)  Graves disease with elevated IgG4 level
  • 73. Finding FVHT Riedels thyroiditis Fibrosing variant of Hashimotos thyroiditis Thyroid antibodies Moderate titre High titre Normal thyroid tissue Sharply demarcated Diffuse involvement Venulitis Yes No Extrathyroidal invasion Yes No Hurthle cells No Yes Lymphocyte light chains λ-dominant κ-dominant Plasma cell production Increased IgA (47%) IgG-dominant, IgA (<15%) Associated autoimmune disease Yes Yes Associated de Quervain syndrome Yes No Ultrasound appearance Hypoechoic Hypoechoic Doppler flow Diminished Enhanced
  • 74. IGG4 RELATED HASHIMOTOTHYROIDITIS  Emerging entity  More progressive course  Female predilection  Higher levels of circulating autoantibodies  Thyroid limited disease may benefit from thyroidectomy and replacement therapy
  • 75. IGG4 RELATED HASHIMOTOTHYROIDITIS  No obliterative phlebitis  Lack of extrathyroidal extension  >20 cells / hpf
  • 76. SUMMARY  Morphology is of paramount importance in thyroid lesions  Diagnosis can be achieved with application of objective criteria  Immunohistochemistry are best supportive  Molecular diagnostics – RQ PCR, Sanger, NGS  Role in pre-operative planning following FNAC  TNM has changed  Awareness about medullary microcarcinoma & IgG4 Hashimoto thyroiditis
  • 77. Technically, the name "Hurthle cell" is incorrect, because the cells described by Hurthle were not what we now term Hurthle cells; however, the name is now too engrained in the literature to be changed -WHO Blue book
