From: A study to evaluate association of nuclear grooving in benign thyroid lesions with RET/PTC1 and RET/PTC3 gene translocation

Fig. 6

Shows PTC-like nuclear features in various BTLs. A Nodular Goiter showing fibrous septae with follicles of varying size in the inset. The area marked in the Inset is been seen in 40 × showing cells with nuclear grooving, round (red arrows, and oval nuclei (yellow arrows). Score 0 to 1 crowding is seen. B Follicular adenoma showing follicles of varying sizes. The area marked as in the Inset is been shown in 40 × showing cells with nuclear grooving and oval nuclei (yellow arrowheads). Score 0 to 1 crowding is seen. C Hashimoto thyroiditis showing follicles with lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate. The area marked as in the Inset is been shown in 40 × showing cells with nuclear grooving, and oval nuclei (yellow arrowheads), with score 1 crowding and the size of the nucleus increased to score 3
