In addition, digital image analysis was applied in 65 cases. Scoring of intratumoral fibrosis showed a strong agreement between two observers and between observers and digital image quantification. The presence and extent of intratumoral fibrosis were significantly associated with poorly differentiated carcinoma histology, large tumor size, extent of vascular invasion, presence of necrosis, high mitotic index, positive nodal status, and aggressive clinical outcome, and with a shorter disease-free and disease-specific survival, the former also in follicular and oncocytic carcinomas analyzed separately. These data support the potential use of fibrosis in the clinical practice since it is both easily assessable and significantly associated with the presence of parameters of aggressiveness.
