Patients with NIFTP are not uncommon and the diagnosis is made only after a thorough evaluation of excision. Therefore, initial conservative management of solitary thyroid nodules suspicious for NIFTP in the form of lobectomy is recommended to avoid unnecessary total thyroidectomies. Our follow-up of NIFTP cases is similar to all previous reports.
