An uncommon variant, Warthin‑like papillary thyroid carcinoma: A case report.

The most prevalent form of thyroid cancer is papillary thyroid carcinoma, of which warthin-like papillary thyroid carcinoma (WLPTC) is an uncommon variant. The symptoms, diagnosis and course of treatment for this subtype of papillary thyroid cancer are comparable to those of the classic variety. It is usually associated with Hashimoto's thyroiditis and is considered to have a favourable prognosis. In the present case report, a 40-year-old female patient was presented with multiple thyroid nodules and subclinical hypothyroidism. The female patient underwent a total thyroidectomy after a fine needle aspiration biopsy revealed an atypia of undetermined significance in one of the nodules, along with a family history of thyroid cancer. The definitive pathological assessment revealed seven thyroid nodules with four different diagnoses, one of which was WLPTC.
