Abstract excerpt
IMPORTANCE: Follicular thyroid hyperplasia (FTH) refers to enlargement of the thyroid gland due to cellular hyperplasia. It is frequently encountered in clinical practice in nontoxic uninodular or multinodular goiter. The genetic and epigenetic events associated with the origin and malignant potential of FTH are poorly understood. OBJECTIVE: To analyze FTH samples for known recurrent genetic and epigenetic driver...
