Abstract: Discrimination between malignant nodules and their precursors – and interim forms remain a diagnostic dilemma; specially to avoid over therapy. Even though Galectin-3 (Gal-3) expression is a marker investigated quite often, this marker is the focus of this manuscript to compare risk constellations in subgroups. In total 283 specimens were investigated regarding their Galectin-3 expression by applying immunohistochemistry. Subgroups were performed (cPTC n=28, FVPTC n= 44, FTC n=51, FA n= 85 and PH n=14) and compared in the risk constella-tions. Sensitivity and specificity of Galectin-3 expression were checked against each other
