Figure 3. Photomicrograph of the histopathology of a thyroglossal duct cyst (TGDC) with presence of a papillary thyroid carcinoma within cyst in a 46-year-old man with an incidental finding of a papillary thyroid carcinoma. The histology shows the epithelial lining of the TGDC and an intracystic non-invasive papillary thyroid carcinoma consisting of a distinctive papillary collection of cohesive cells with prominent nuclei and nucleoli and microcalcifications (blue) in the stroma, consistent with papillary thyroid carcinoma. Hematoxylin and eosin; magnification ×20.
