Aggressive variants of follicular cell-derived thyroid carcinomas: a cytopathologist's perspective.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The newly unveiled Milan System for Reporting Salivary Gland Cytopathology (MSRSGC) has proposed salivary gland neoplasm of uncertain malignant potential (SUMP) as an indeterminate category. The category is reserved for fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cases that are diagnostic of a salivary gland neoplasm but c...
