Figure 2

H&E stain at 4x magnification of anterior neck mass demonstrating epithelial capsule without cilia surrounding papillary architecture and few normal thyroid components. No evidence of cystic components is seen. The histological stain shows that the anterior neck mass is consistent with an ectopic papillary thyroid carcinoma.
