Tall cell variant (TCV) papillary carcinoma represents
10% of all papillary carcinomas. TCV tumors are larger than usual papillary
carcinomas (UPC). TCV is usually more aggressive than UPC with increased
local reccurence and death.
Miscroscopic Pathology:
Papillary carcinoma with cells that are twice as tall
as they are wide. As you can see in the photmicrograph there is also
a large amount of eosinophilic cytoplasm.
