This document discusses updates to the classification of thyroid neoplasms in the latest WHO classification. It describes the hierarchical classification system used which is based on cell of origin, pathologic features, molecular characteristics, and biological behavior. It provides details on the classification of benign and malignant follicular cell-derived neoplasms. It introduces new entities such as noninvasive encapsulated follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (NIFTP) and differentiated high-grade thyroid carcinoma (DHGTC). It also discusses criteria for diagnosing poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma and provides recommendations for management and follow-up of thyroid neoplasms based on risk stratification.

Small round cell Tumors are a group of cytomorphologically similar neoplasm with varied orgin. The neoplastic elements include undifferentiated , uniform, small round to oval closely packed cells with a solitary hyperchromatic nucleus and a high nuclear cytoplasmic ratio. The nucleoli may or may not be prominent. (Reshma Et al. Small round cell tumor of head and neck region.International journal of oral and maxillofacial pathology.2014)
The data on thyroid tumors in the fourth edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of endocrine tumors published in 2017 contain significant revisions.
These revisions of the 2004 WHO classification were based on new knowledge about pathology, clinical behavior, and most importantly the genetics of the thyroid tumors.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics

Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

2.
3. • In the fifth edition, each tumor is listed
within a hierarchical taxonomic
classification based on
• the cell of origin,
• pathologic,
• molecular features,
• biological behavior
4. 1. Development abnormalities
2. Follicular cell-derived neoplasms
3. Thyroid C-cell-derived carcinoma
4. Mixed medullary and follicular cell-
derived carcinomas
5. Salivary gland-type carcinomas of
the thyroid
6. Thyroid tumors of uncertain
histogenesis
7. Thymic tumors within the thyroid
8. Embryonal thyroid neoplasms
7. • Multinodular goiter: irregular
enlargement of thyroid gland due to
repeated episodes of hyperplasia
and involution (degeneration) of
simple goiter
• Nodules are clonal or polyclonal and
are due to heterogeneous responses
of follicular epithelium to TSH
8. Therefore, an
umbrella term of
‘follicular nodular
disease’ (FND) has
been proposed in
the latest WHO
classification
BENIGN TUMORS
1. Thyroid follicular nodular disease
2. Follicular thyroid adenoma
3. Follicular thyroid adenoma with papillary architecture
4. Oncocytic adenoma of the thyroid
9. Benign tumors
Thyroid follicular nodular disease
Follicular thyroid adenoma
Follicular thyroid adenoma with papillary architecture
Oncocytic adenoma of the thyroid
15. Noninvasive encapsulated follicular
variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma
• Pathologic diagnostic criteria:Inclusion criteria
• Major features:
• Encapsulation or clear demarcation
• Follicular growth pattern with less than 1% papillae (see comment below)
• If solid, trabecular or insular patterns seen; these in total should be less than 30% of the total tumor volume
• No psammoma bodies
• Nuclear features of papillary thyroid carcinoma (enlargement, crowding / overlapping, elongation, irregular contours, grooves, pseudoinclusions,
chromatin clearing), nuclear score should be 2 or 3
• Minor features:
• Dark colloid
• Irregularly shaped follicle
• "Sprinkling sign"
• Follicles cleft from stroma
• Multinucleated giant cells within follicles
• Exclusion criteria:
• Any capsular or vascular invasion but if the whole capsule has not been examined thoroughly then the default diagnosis is still
noninvasive encapsulated FVPTC (EFVPTC) and it is NOT a NIFTP
• True papillary structures in more than 1% of tumor volume, psammoma bodies, infiltrative border
• Tumor necrosis (not associated with FNA), increased mitoses (defined as at least 3 per 10 HPF)
• Cell / morphological characteristics of any other papillary thyroid carcinoma variant (e.g., tall cell, columnar cell, cribriform morular,
diffuse sclerosing, etc.) or oncocytic lesion
16. Follicular tumor – uncertain malignant potential
(FTUMP) and well differentiated tumor uncertain
malignant potential
• Thyroid tumors of uncertain malignant potential are rare lesions in
which histological confirmation of capsular and/or vascular invasion is
equivocal.
• These tumor entities require extensive microscopic assessment of the
entire capsule/tumor interface, as a single focus of invasive focus
would disqualify these diagnoses.
18. HYALINISING TRABECULAR TUMOR
• HTTs are follicular cell-derived thyroid neoplasms with PTC-related
nuclear atypia, trabecular growth pattern, extracellular hyaline matrix
and specific PAX8::GLIS1 and PAX8::GLIS3 fusions.
• Metastases associated with HTT have only been reported in single,
historic cases.
20. POORLY DIFFERENTIATED THYROID
CARCINOMA
• Turin consensus diagnostic criteria:
• Solid / trabecular / insular growth pattern
• No nuclear features of papillary carcinoma
• Presence of at least one of following: convoluted nuclei, ≥ 3 mitotic figures/10 HPF,
tumor necrosis
• Other:
• Prototypical type insular carcinoma: solid nests (may contain microfollicules) composed of small
uniform cell with round hyperchromatic nuclei or convoluted nuclei, increased mitotic figures,
necrosis
• Others tumors: solid nests composed of larger more pleomorphic tumor cells; may have
oncocytic cells, clear cells, signet ring cells or rhabdoid cells
• Component of well differentiated tumor (papillary or follicular carcinoma) may also be present
• As few as 10% of poorly differentiated carcinomas (in otherwise well differentiated carcinomas)
may be associated with unfavorable prognosis
• May have peritheliomatous pattern (tumor cells around blood vessels with necrosis of tumor
cells further away from vessels), vascular and capsular invasion
21.
22. • However, some experts have considered a mitotic index ≥5 mitoses
per 2 mm2 (10 high-power fields) and/or tumor necrosis as
indications of a poorly differentiated phenotype even in the absence
of morphologic dedifferentiation .
• In the fifth edition of the WHO classification, an intermediate entity
of ‘differentiated high-grade thyroid carcinoma’ (DHGTC) is therefore
introduced for PTCs and FTCs/OTCs with ≥5 mitoses per 2
mm2 and/or tumor necrosis to highlight high-risk differentiated
thyroid carcinomas (Baloch et al. 2022).
• The tumors classified as such may have retained PTC-related nuclear
atypia or a follicular growth pattern and features that are not
acceptable for a PDTC diagnosis (Fig. 3
Most agree that the terms ‘colloid nodules,’ ‘multinodular goiter,’ ‘adenomatous goiter’ and ‘multinodular hyperplasia’ often used by pathologists are not reflective of the underlying pathology besides the mere confirmation of clinical findings. Molecular analyses of individual nodules in such cases have revealed that a good proportion of goitrous nodules is monoclonal and represents neoplastic proliferations making it impossible to distinguish between non-neoplastic and benign neoplastic follicular neoplasms i.e. adenomas on the basis of morphology alone
These tumors are often associated with autonomous hyperfunction and may therefore appear as hot or warm nodules on radionuclide thyroid scan
diagnosis of oncocytic follicular adenoma requires >75% of tumor cells to exhibit oncocytic features
