Different cancers can develop from different cells in the body.
According to the National Health Service (NHS) in the United Kingdom,
there are four main types of thyroid cancer, falling under three
umbrella categories that are known as differentiated, anaplastic, and
medullary:

- Papillary carcinoma: This is the most common type of thyroid
cancer, in which tumors can grow slowly. It is also highly treatable. It
particularly affects women under 40, accounting for around 8 in 10 cases
of thyroid cancer.
- Follicular carcinoma: Follicular cancer is more aggressive than
papillary cancer, and patients over the age of 55 usually have a more
malignant disease than younger patients.
- Medullary thyroid carcinoma: This type of thyroid cancer is less
common, accounting for less than 1 in 10 cases. It is also genetic,
meaning that it runs in families.
- Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma: This type of cancer is rare and
accounts for 1 in 50 cases, mostly affecting those around the age of 60.

Papillary and follicular thyroid cancers are known as differentiated
thyroid cancers. Differentiated thyroid cancers usually grow slowly over
time.
