Clear cell tumours are found in a number of organs. Thus, it is important to have a list of 'em in one's head so one doesn't misdiagnose something.
Clear cell in the name
Skin
- Clear cell carcinoma of the skin.
Gynecologic tract
- Clear cell carcinoma of the gynecologic tract.
Genitourinary tract
Gastrointestinal tract
- Clear cell variant of hepatocellular carcinoma.[1]
Head and neck pathology
- Clear cell carcinoma of the salivary gland:[2]
- Clear cell myoepithelial carcinoma.
- Hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma.
Soft tissue pathology
Neuropathology
Tumours with clear/pale cytoplasm
- Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma.
- Sebaceous carcinoma.
- Seminoma/dysgerminoma/germinoma.
- Paraganglioma.
- Oligodendroglioma.
- Neurocytoma.
- Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma.
An exhaustive differential diagnosis for clear cell tumour
