Succinate dehydrogenase-deficient renal cell carcinoma, also succinate dehydrogenase renal cell carcinoma (abbreviated SDH-RCC), is a very rare type of renal cell carcinoma.
It is grouped in the emerging entities of the Vancouver modification of the 2004 WHO classification of renal neoplasia.[1]
General
- Extremely rare - only approximately 10 cases described as of 2012.[1]
- May be assocated with paraganglioma (as with several SDH mutations).
- Primarily described with a SDHB mutation.[2]
- Usually good prognosis.
Gross
- Commonly cystic.
Microscopic
Features:[2]
- Eosinophilic cells with clear (flocculent) cytoplasmic inclusions. ‡
- Round nuclei with mildly granular chromatin pattern.
- Intratumoural mast cells.
- Solid architecture.
Notes:
- ‡ Occasional cells may look like signet ring cells.
- Typically low ISUP grade.
- May be sarcomatoid.
DDx:
- Renal oncocytoma - granular cytoplasm.
- Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma.
- Clear cell renal cell carcinoma.
Images
- SDHB-RCC - poor quality histology image (nih.gov).[3]
- SDHC-RCC (nih.gov).[3]
- SDH-deficient RCC (nature.com).[2]
IHC
Features:
- SDHB -ve (11 of 11 cases[2]).
- Normal tubules +ve.
- May be (pseudo)negative in clear cells (as few mitochondria).
- CD117 -ve - important.
Others:
- PAX8 +ve.
- CK7 -ve (1/35).
