Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Warthin-like variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (WL-PTC) is an extremely rare subtype of PTC characterized by oncocytic cells with a dense lymphocytic infiltrate. Despite its rarity, WL-PTC is generally associated with a favorable prognosis. We report a case of a 36-year-old gentleman who developed WL-PTC without family history or risk factors for cancer.
