15. Histopathological features and outcomes of poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma

Abstract

Introduction: Poorly differentiated thyroid carcinomas (PDTC) represent a rare group of thyroid cancers, often regarded as anaplastic carcinomas and therefore not treated with curative intent. Current literature is limited when reporting, histopathological features, treatment options and outcomes. The aim of this paper is to describe our experience of managing this group of patients and to provide evidence for an optimal treatment algorithm.
