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][2]

HLRCC is classically described as:[3]

General

  • Autosomal dominant inheritance[4] with variable penetration.[5]
  • In one series of 21 families: 62% renal cancer, 76% had cutaneous leiomyomas and 100% had uterine leiomyomas.[6]

Clinical:

  • Leiomyomas seen in almost all patients.
    • Manifestation: skin rash.[7]
  • The associated renal cell carcinoma is often aggressive and significant cause of mortality.[8]

Microscopic

Features - renal cell carcinoma:[8]

  • Large eosinophilic nucleolus with perinucleolar clearing - proposed hallmark - important.
    • May be focal.
  • Variable architecture:
    • Papillary - classic description.
      • Hyaline material within the fibrovascular cores.
    • Tubulopapillary.
    • Tubular.
    • Solid.
    • Sieve-like pattern/cribriform.

IHC

  • FH -ve.
  • 2SC +ve -- cytoplasmic,[5] cytoplasmic and nuclear.[8]
    • 2SC = S-(2-succino)-cysteine.
