The detection of rosette‐like clusters (RLC) of follicular cells in thyroid carcinoma has been reported mostly in the columnar cell variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Despite the fact that diagnosing variants of PTC is no longer encouraged by The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology, the identification of cytomorphological features such as RLC linked with these tumours might help reduce possible misinterpretation in thyroid fine needle aspiration (FNA) cytology. We accordingly investigated the potential correlation of architectural patterns including RLC with PTC variants.

甲状腺乳头状癌变体中玫瑰花状图案的相关性。

甲状腺癌中滤泡细胞的玫瑰花结样簇（RLC）的检测报告主要见于甲状腺乳头状癌（PTC）的柱状细胞变异体。尽管贝塞斯达甲状腺细胞病理报告系统不再鼓励诊断 PTC 的变异，但识别与这些肿瘤相关的 RLC 等细胞形态学特征可能有助于减少甲状腺细针穿刺 (FNA) 细胞学中可能出现的误解。因此，我们调查了包括 RLC 在内的架构模式与 PTC 变体的潜在相关性。
