En-CVPTC is less prevalent than En-FVPTC. However, it has good clinical/ pathological behavior comparable to En-FVPTC. This finding confirms the good prognostic role of a whole tumor capsule in CVPTC as well. New nomenclature for En-CVPTC, similar to that introduced for En-FVPTC (ie, noninvasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary-like nuclear features; NIFTP) could be envisaged.
