Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The BRAF(V600E) mutation is the most common diagnostic/prognostic marker in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Its evaluation is typically performed with DNA-based techniques; nonetheless, a few articles have recently proposed the morphological prediction of BRAF(V600E) in histological PTCs. We investigated this morphological parameter in our cytological series. METHODS: We re-analyzed all 72...
