Fig 1. Extrathyroidal extension (ETE). A,B, Gross ETE: a patient with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) with pre-operative radiological evidence of invasion into trachea. Macroscopically (A), an infiltrative firm beige mass was present involving thyroid gland proper and infiltrating between tracheal rings (T). Microscopically, the carcinoma infiltrated in between tracheal cartilage and was present at the tracheal mucosal surface. This tumour should be staged as pT4a based on gross ETE into trachea. C,D, Microscopic (minimal) ETE: tumour nests were present in between perithyroidal adipose tissue (FAT, panel C) or skeletal muscle (M, panel D).
