abstract = {Differentiated thyroid cancers are the most common malignancies arising in thyroid gland. Papillary thyroid cancer present a very favorable prognosis, while follicular type is slightly more aggressive, mainly for its attitude to hematogenous spreading with distant metastases. Papillary microcarcinoma (10 mm or less) has an excellent prognosis, largely demonstrated, and its management is changed in the last few years, reducing surgical procedure, role of radio iodine ablation (RAI) and TSH suppression. But no effective data are available for follicular thyroid microcarcinoma (mFTC); very few reports and studies are present in literature about mFTC, mainly for its low incidence. Aim of this paper is to review current literature to reach, in absence of evidence, some suggestion in managing mFTC.},
