There are many rumors that thyroid cancer is no longer recognized as cancer, and many people are worried that then the critical illness insurance or cancer insurance they buy now will not cover them if they have thyroid cancer? In fact, the revision of tumor diagnostic criteria is not the first time. There was once a precedent for this in some tumors, such as carcinoma in situ of cervical squamous epithelium, which is now also changed to the name of intraepithelial neoplasia. It is certainly a rumor that the carcinoma of mere non-invasive encapsulated follicular thyroid papillary carcinoma will no longer be called carcinoma, but will be renamed non-invasive follicular neoplasm of the thyroid with papillary nuclei characteristic of the thyroid (NIFTP). Therefore, the introduction of the NIFTP concept is actually a revision of the old standard, which is to exclude the non-invasive ones with good biological behavior and turn them into “non-cancerous”, not that all thyroid cancers have become “non-cancerous”, and not that cancer has been overcome by humans and become benign tumors.
