Background and Objectives:  We aimed to assess the diagnostic value of various immunohistochemical (IHC) markers and panels for differentiation among benign follicular nodules (BFNs), noninvasive follicular thyroid neoplasms with papillary-like nuclear features (NIFTPs), noninvasive encapsulated follicular variants of papillary thyroid carcinoma (NEFVPTCs), and infiltrative FVPTC (IFVPTC).  Materials and Methods:  Sixty-three cases were classified as BFNs, NIFTPs, NEFVPTCs, or IFVPTCs and were evaluated using the following markers: CK19, CD56, galectin-3, CITED1, HBME-1, VE1, and TROP-2.  Results:  The IHC results for NIFTP and NEFVPTC exhibited no statistically significant differences. In differentiating IFVPTCs from BFNs and NIFTPs/NEFVPTCs, galectin-3 and TROP-2 were the markers with the highest sensitivity plus high specificity, respectively. In various combinations, panel co-expression of two markers, including galectin-3 and/or HBME-1 and/or TROP-2, and the combination of galectin-3 and TROP-2 co-expression could achieve 100% in all aspects. In terms of discrimination of BFNs from NIFTP/NEFVPTC, CK19 was the single most sensitive marker (81.3%), while CD56 was the most specific (100%). The panel consisting of CK19 and/or HBME-1 exhibited the greatest sensitivity (96.9%), but the panel with CD56 and/or HBME-1 exhibited the greatest specificity (90.5%).  Conclusions:  Our results broaden the use of IHC markers for differential diagnoses among the four groups of follicular-based lesions. In addition, the similar IHC profiles of NIFTP and NEFVPTC also suggest the original criterion of <1% papillae within tumors, providing a reliable NIFTP diagnosis. Their close relationship may represent a spectrum of progressing neoplasia.
