Abstract:
Diffuse sclerosing variant papillary thyroid carcinoma,one of the variants of papillary thyroid carcinoma,nearly account for 0.7% to 6.6% of papillary thyroid carcinoma.It is an aggressive tumor that shows higher rates of recurrence,metastasis and persistent disease compares to classic papillary thyroid carcinoma,thus diffuse sclerosing variant papillary thyroid carcinoma needs stricter and more exhaustive operation.Since the incidence of diffuse sclerosing variant papillary thyroid carcinoma is low,many physicians lack of understanding of the disease,it's often missed diagnosis or misdiagnosed.Consequently.In order to let physicians understand more about diffuse sclerosing variant papillary thyroid carcinoma,this paper will elaborate the epidemiology,clinic and pathology features of it.
