The sections show thyroid gland with follicles of variable size and marked enlargement. A large nodule is present with microfollicles that are densely packed around the edge and few in the centre.  The nuclei of the microfollicles are round. No significant nuclear membrane irregularities there are apparent.  Very rare enlarged nuclei are present. Occasional nucleoli are seen. No nuclear overlap is readily apparent.
