Identification of distinct cytomorphologic features in the diagnosis of NIFTP at the time of preoperative FNA: Implications for patient management

Therefore, a preoperative cytologic evaluation provides clues that can aid in the distinction between NIFTP and its invasive counterparts. Cancer Cytopathol 2017. © 2017 American Cancer Society.
