Hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell carcinoma (abbreviated HLRCC), also hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer, is an uncommon syndrome caused by fumarate hydratase (FH) gene mutations.[1]
HLRCC is classically described as:[2]
- Papillary renal cell carcinoma type 2.
- Benign leiomyomas skin/uterus.
- Uterine leiomyosarcoma.
General
Clinical:
- Leiomyomas seen in almost all patients.
- The associated renal cell carcinoma is often aggressive and significant cause of mortality.[5]
Microscopic
Features:[5]
- Large eosinophilic nucleolus with perinucleolar clearing - proposed hallmark - important.
- May be focal.
- Variable architecture:
- Papillary - classic description.
- Tubulopapillary.
- Tubular.
- Solid.
DDx:
- Papillary renal cell carcinoma (type 2).
- Tubulocystic carcinoma of the kidney.
- Collecting duct carcinoma.
- Renal medullary carcinoma - cells also have a prominent nucleolus.
