Kidney tumours - includes malignant kidney tumours and benign kidney tumours. Medical renal diseases are dealt with in the medical renal diseases article.

Renal specimens

  • Renal biopsy - usually of medical disease (see medical kidney).
  • Partial nephrectomy.
  • Nephrectomy.
  • Nephroureterectomy (includes ureter) - done for urothelial cell carcinoma (UCC) of the renal pelvis and ureteric UCC.
  • Radical nephrectomy (includes the adrenal gland).

In excisions done for tumours, a comment should be made about kidney distant from the tumour. People with less renal mass, i.e. less kidney, are predisposed to focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS).[1]

Renal cell carcinoma

General

  • Relatively common form of cancer.
  • Often abbreviated RCC.

Origin

  • Proximal renal tubule.

Clinical

  • Classically described as a triad:[2]
    • Hematuria (most common symptom).
    • Abdominal mass.
    • Flank pain.
  • Frequently picked-up on imaging (incidentaloma) ~ 1/3 of cases.

Risk factors

  • Smoking.
  • Some chemicals.
  • Hemodialysis.
  • Male>female (~2:1).
  • Hereditary - familial syndromes (see Hereditary RCC).

Subtypes

RCC (renal cell carcinoma) comes in different subtypes:[3]

  • Clear cell carcinoma (70-80% of RCC) -- abbrev. CCRCC,
  • Papillary renal cell carcinoma (10-15% of RCC) -- abbrev. PRCC,
  • Chromophobe renal carcinoma (5% of RCC) -- abbrev. ChRCC,
  • Collecting duct (Bellini duct) carcinoma (1% of RCC).

Notes:

  • Subtype is an independent predictor of mortality - but adds very little to multivariate models with staging information.[4]
  • CCRCC tends to be worse than ChRCC and PRCC, probably due to higher incidence of mets.[5]

IHC - is it RCC?

  • RCC Ma (+), CD10 (+) -- specific for RCC[6]

IHC - differentiation of types

  • Clear cell RCC vs. papillary RCC:
    • CK7 (-ve CCRCC), AMACR (+ve in PRCC).[7]
  • Papillary RCC type 1 vs. papillary RCC type 2:
    • E-cadherin +ve in PRCC type 2.[8]
    • EMA (MUC1) +ve in PRCC type 1.[8]
  • ChRCC vs. oncocytoma (ONC):
    • CK7 (ChRCC +ve membrane), CK20, CD15.[7]
    • CK7 -- ChRCC 86% +ve vs. ONC 0% +ve[9]
    • CD15 -- ChRCC 11% +ve vs. ONC 57% +ve.[10]
    • Hale's colloidal iron +ve in ChRCC, usually neg. in ONC.[11]
    • PAX2 -- ChRCC (1/11) +ve vs. ONC (20/23) +ve.[12]
  • ChRCC & renal oncocytoma vs. others:
    • CD117 (ckit) +ve (100% membrane, ~75% cytoplasmic).[13]
  • Clear cell RCC vs. chromophobe RCC:
    • Hale's colloidal iron (+ve in ChRCC).[11]
    • CK7 (cell membrane +ve in ChRCC).

Notes:

  • One paper[14] describes CD10, parvalbumin, AMACR, CK7 and S100A1 as being useful.
  • Another paper I came across:[15]
  • c-kit (CD117) not useful for differentiating ONC and ChRCC.[12]

Notes:

  • Cell shape: all have epithelioid morphology.

Hereditary RCC

The classics - which are all autosomal dominant:[3]

  1. Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome (clear cell tumours).
  2. Hereditary clear cell carcinoma (VHL gene).
  3. Hereditary papillary carcinoma (MET proto-oncogene mutation).

Others:

  • Hereditary papillary carcinoma (TFE3 related translocations).[18]

Grading

General

Some subtypes are graded based on the Fuhrman system which considers:[19]

  • Nuclear pleomorphism (size, shape),
  • Chromatin pattern,
  • Nucleoli prominence.

The system was validated for clear cell RCC. Fuhrman nuclear grade is not prognostic in chromophobe RCC and should not be used in that context.[20]

Criteria & grades

  • Grade 1: no nucleoli, near 'normal' appearance.
  • Grade 2: finely granular chromatin (key feature), no nuclei visible with 10x objective lens.
  • Grade 3: nucleoli seen easily (key feature).
  • Grade 4: prominent pleomorphism (key feature), hyperchromasia, macronucleoli.

Note: Most tumours are grade 2 & 3.

Fuhrman grading in short

  • 1 vs. 2: grade 2 has granular chromatin, grade 2 has nucleoli visible @ 5x objective.[21]
  • 2 vs. 3: grade 3 has nucleoli @ 10x objective.
  • 3 vs. 4: grade 4 has pleomorphism/hyperchromasia.

Clear cell carcinoma

Gross

  • Gold/yellow.
  • +/-Haemorrhage (common).
  • +/-Necrosis (common in large tumours).

Microscopic

Features:[22]

  • Clear cells.
  • Solid or trabecular pattern.
  • Delicate branching vasculature.
  • Hyaline bodies common.[23]
    • Not common in papillary RCC.

IHC

  • CK7 -ve.
  • CK20 -ve.
  • Hale's colloidal iron -ve.
    • +ve in chromophobe.

Note: Hale's colloidal iron does not stain iron... it stains hemosiderin.[24]

Clear cell vs. chromophobe:

  • Chromophobe: "translucent" (NOT quite clear), reticulated, +Hale's colloidal iron stain, CK7+ (cell membrane).

Clear cell vs. adrenocortical carcinoma:

  • ACC: EMA- (epithelial membrane antigen), cytokeratin mostly neg., inhibin+ (neg. in RCC).[25]

Papillary RCC

General

  • Often subclassified[26] into type 1 and type 2 -- see below.
  • May be abbreviated PRCC.

Epidemiology

  • Associated with dialysis associated cystic disease.[27]

Microsopy

Features:[28]

  • Cuboidal or low columnar cell in papillae.
  • Interstitial foam cells in vascular cores - key feature.[29]
    • Most sensitive and specific feature of PRCC.[30]
  • Highly vascular.

Mnemonic HIP: highly vascular, interstitial foam cells, papillae.

Size criterion:

  • Papillary lesions must be >0.5 cm to be called carcinoma; smaller lesions (<=0.5 cm) are called papillary adenomas.[31]

Histological subtyping:[26]

  • Type 1 - single layer of cells on basement membrane.
    • usually low grade nuclear features, i.e. low Fuhrman grade.
  • Type 2 - pseudostratification of cells.
    • Usually high grade nuclear features, i.e. high Fuhrman grade.

IHC

Features:[26]

  • AMACR +ve.[32]
  • HMWCK (34betaE12) +ve.
  • Panker (AE1/AE3) +ve.
  • CK7 +ve ~90% of type 1, 20% of type 2.

More reading:

Clear cell vs. papillary

  • Papillary: +histiocytes, +intracellular hemosiderin, CK7+.

Chromophobe RCC

General

  • Sometimes abbreviated ChRCC.

There are two subtypes:[33]

  • Classic.
  • Eosinophilic variant.

Gross

  • Tan, light-brown.
  • Solitary.
  • Well-circumscribed.

Microscopy

Classic Histo.[34][33], 3 P's mnemonic:

  • Pale cytoplasm, with wisps of eosinophilic material; the cells are not completely clear, they have "cobwebs".
  • Perinuclear clearing, i.e. a pale halo surrounds the nucleus - key feature.
  • Periphery of cell distinct, i.e. cell membrane is easy to discern.

Eosinophilic variant:[33]

  • Eosinophilic (finely granular) cytoplasm.
  • Perinuclear clearing - key feature.
  • Periphery of cell distinct.
  • Smaller cells than classic subtype.

Notes:

  • May have psammoma bodies.

Image: Oncocytic chromophobe RCC (wikimedia.org).

IHC

  • CK7 +ve cell membrane.[33]

DDx:

  • May appear similar to oncotyoma -- particularily the eosinophilic variant.
    • IHC: CK7: chromophobe = cell membrane CK7+; oncoctyoma = patchy cytoplasmic +ve
  • Classic ChRCC may be challenging to differentiate from clear cell RCC.
    • Perinuclear clearing is not seen in clear cell RCC.
    • ChRCC has wisps in the cytoplasm

Urothelial cell carcinoma

Main article: Urothelium
  • Clinically/radiologically, it may not be possible to differentiate renal pelvis UCC and RCC if the tumour is large.
  • Pathologically, this is not very difficult.
  • On gross specimens, it is almost always obvious what one is dealing with:
    • UCC = nephroureterectomy.
    • RCC = partial nephrectomy, nephrectomy or radical nephrectomy.

Benign & mimics

Oncocytoma

General

  • Can be difficult to distinguish radiologically from RCC (chromophobe subtype).
    • ... and pathologists occasionally struggle like the radiologists.
  • Benign tumour - the reason it is excised is... one cannot be certain it isn't a RCC.

Gross

  • Brown, mahogany brown.
  • 1/3 have a characteristic central scar.[35]

Image: Renal oncocytoma with central scar (wikipedia.org).

Histology

Features:

  • Eosinophilic cytoplasm - slightly granular key feature.
  • Cells arranged in nests.
  • Nuclei uniform and round.[35]
    • Slightly enlarged nuclei, but no significant pleomorphism (size variation) - important.

Notes:

  • May look like eosinophilic variant of chromophobe RCC -- this is the main DDx.
    • May need IHC to differentiate (CK7: oncocytoma = cytoplasm +ve, chromophobe = cell membrane +ve).
    • No perinuclear clearing -- this is seen in ChRCC.

Images:

Angiomyolipoma

General

  • Mostly benign mesenchymal tumour.
  • Presentations: flank pain, hematuria, incidentaloma.[36]
  • AMLs occur may be elsewhere in the body, e.g. liver,[37] but are most common in the kidney.

Epidemiology

  • May be assoc. with tuberous sclerosis -- 70% have an AML.
    • When compared to sporadic cases:
      • More often bilateral.
      • Usually bigger.

Microscopy

  • Muscle.
  • Adipose tissue - not always present.[38]
  • Blood vessels.

Cytologic features[38]

  • Nuclei - round/ovoid.
  • Chromatin - bland.

IHC

  • Melanocytic markers +ve[39] (e.g. HMB-45 +ve).
  • Epithelial markers -ve.[39]
  • SMA +ve.
  • CD117 +/-.

Additional paper: [38]

Notes:

  • There is a suggestion that an epithelioid variant is more worisome,[40] but this is not the case in all studies.[41]

Ki-67 can be used to help distinguish btw 'em -- epithelioid variant Ki-67 +ve.[42]

Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis

General

  • May mimic RCC (esp. radiologically).
  • Usually lower pole ???
  • Associated with:
    • Diabetes mellitus,

    • GU obstruction.[44]
  • Occasionally an indication of nephrectomy.[43][44]
  • Most common organism (in the context of nephrectomy specimens) - Proteus mirabilis.[44]
