Introduction: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) in thyroid cancer allows for high-throughput sequencing analysis of various genetic alterations and provides a useful information of tumor biology. NGS Studies on follicular differentiated thyroid cancer have been scanty from Indian subcontinent. In this context, we set out study the prevalence of a genetic panel wide somatic mutations in thyroid cancer.Material and Methods: This prospective study was conduc...

Introduction: Poorly differentiated thyroid cancer (PDC) is a relatively rare form of differentiated thyroid caner with intermediate prognosis between well differentiated (WDTC) and anaplastic cancers (ATC). But, this finding is debatable in literature. Genomics is the one of definitive modalities to resolve this conundrum. ATC tends to express P53 and KMT2D mutations frequently, while WDTC have no such mutations. Similar studies are scanty in PDC. In this context, we set out ...
