Fig. 3

Representative micrographs of thyroid neoplasms mimicking hyalinizing trabecular tumors. The figure illustrates a follicular adenoma of trabecular variant (a, 200×), a poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma (b, 200×), and a Hurthle cell carcinoma (c, 200×) with prominent hyalinization, mimicking hyalinizing trabecular tumors on morphological ground. No membrane Ki67/MIB1 staining was observed, as exemplified here for the case of follicular thyroid adenoma with trabecular features (d, 200×)
