|---|---|
| Diagnosis in short | |
 Eosinophilic variant of chromophobe renal cell carcinoma. H&E stain. | |
|
| |
| LM | pale cytoplasm, with wisps of eosinophilic material, perinuclear clearing (a pale halo surrounds the nucleus), periphery of cell distinct (cell membrane is easy to discern -- plant cell-like) |
| Subtypes | classic, eosinophilic variant |
| LM DDx | clear cell renal cell carcinoma (classic), renal oncocytoma, clear cell renal cell carcinoma eosinophilic variant |
| Stains | Hale's colloidal iron +ve |
| IHC | CK7 +ve cell membrane, CD117 +ve, vimentin -ve |
| Site | kidney - see renal tumours |
|

| Syndromes | Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome |

| Prevalence | relatively common |
Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma, abbreviated ChRCC, is a relatively common form of renal cell carcinoma.
General
- Least common of the common types of RCC (clear cell RCC, papillary RCC, chromophobe RCC).
- Fuhrman grading for this entity is controversial, as it does not appear to have any predictive value.[1]
- May be associated with Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome.[2]
There are two subtypes:[3]
- Classic.
- Eosinophilic variant.
Gross
- Tan, light-brown.
- Solitary.
- Well-circumscribed.

Microscopic
Classic
Features - classic type (3 P's mnemonic):[4][3]
- 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.
Notes:
- May have psammoma bodies.
- May be described as "plant-like"; plant cells have (thick) cell walls.
- The perinuclear clearing is often somewhat patchy, i.e. it is usually not present in very tumour cell.
DDx:
- Clear cell RCC (classic).
- Perinuclear clearing is not seen in clear cell RCC.
- ChRCC has wisps in the cytoplasm.
Eosinophilic variant
Features - eosinophilic variant:[3]
- Eosinophilic (finely granular) cytoplasm.
- Perinuclear clearing - key feature.
- Periphery of cell distinct.
- Smaller cells than classic subtype.
Notes:
- May have psammoma bodies.
DDx:
- Oncocytoma - particularly the eosinophilic variant.
- IHC may be useful to differentiate (CK7: oncocytoma = cytoplasm +ve, chromophobe = cell membrane +ve).
- A comparison based on histomorphology: Tabular comparison between ChRCC & oncocytoma.
- Oncocytoma typically has: no perinuclear clearing, no raisinoid nuclei, no binucleation.
- Clear cell RCC, eosinophilic variant.
- Perinuclear clearing is not seen in clear cell RCC.
- ChRCC has wisps in the cytoplasm.

Stains
- Hale's colloidal iron +ve (blue granular cytoplasmic).
Images:
- ChRCC Hale's colloidal iron - several images (nature.com).
- ChRCC Hale's colloidal iron (ultrapath.org).[5]
- ChRCC Hale's colloidal iron (diagnosticpathology.org).
IHC
ChRCC versus oncocytoma
Molecular
- Extensive aneusomy (monosomy?):[9]
- Loss of chromosomes: 1, 2, 6, 10, 13, 17, 21.

KIDNEY, RIGHT UPPER POLE, PARTIAL NEPHRECTOMY: - CHROMOPHOBE RENAL CELL CARCINOMA. COMMENT: The sections show a mix of clear cells with wispy cytoplasm, and cells with eosinophilic cytoplasm and perinuclear halos. There are no true papillae. Stains and immunostains: Positive: CK7, CAM5.2, EMA, pankeratin, CD117, colloidal iron. Negative: AMACR, CD10, CD68, RCC, vimentin.
