Abstract

Tumors of parafollicular cells and nonepithelial tumors occur less frequently than tumors derived from follicular cells. This review summarizes the histologic and cytologic features of these neoplasms and the nonneoplastic diseases that often have to be included in the differential diagnosis of thyroid tumors. Also, the role of fine-needle aspiration biopsy and frozen section interpretation in the diagnosis of thyroid nodules are discussed.
