Papillary hurthle cell tumours of thyroid. Diagnostic features in eight cases with review of literature.

ABSTRACT

Papillary hurthle cell tumours of thyroid are rare tumours with controversial behaviour. Morphologically, these tumours are characterized by the presence of oxyphilic cells in prominent perivascular papillary clusters. We present here cytological analysis and histopathological correlation of eight cases with brief review of literature.
