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).
- ISUP nucleolar grading (replaces Fuhrman grading) not done for this entity, as it does not appear to have any predictive value.[1]
- May be associated with Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome.[2]
- Can be seen in the context of renal oncocytosis.[3]
Subtypes
There are two subtypes:[4]
- Classic.
- Eosinophilic variant.
Gross
- Grey-beige colour.[5]
- Solitary, usually.‡
- Well-circumscribed.
Note:
- ‡ Approximately 3% are multifocal.[6]

Microscopic
Classic
Features - classic type (3 P's memory device):[7][4]
- 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.
Images
ChRCC - low mag. (WC/Nephron)
ChRCC - intermed. mag. (WC/Nephron)
ChRCC - high mag. (WC/Nephron)
ChRCC - very high mag. (WC/Nephron)
ChRCC - high mag. (WC/Nephron)
ChRCC - very high mag. (WC/Nephron)
Eosinophilic variant
Features - eosinophilic variant:[4]
- 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.
- Renal hybrid oncocytic/chromophobe tumour.
- Other renal tumours with eosinophilic cytoplasm.

Stains
- Hale's colloidal iron +ve (blue granular cytoplasmic).
- Oncocytoma -ve.
Note:
- This seems to be a difficult stain to get working.
Images
- ChRCC Hale's colloidal iron - several images (nature.com).
- ChRCC Hale's colloidal iron (ultrapath.org).[8]
- ChRCC Hale's colloidal iron (diagnosticpathology.org).
IHC
- CK7 +ve cell membrane.[4]
- Useful for differentiating from oncocytoma.
- CD117 +ve.
- Vimentin -ve.[9][10]
Others:[11]
- CD10 -ve.
- RCC -ve.
Uncommon stains for ChRCC versus oncocytoma:
ChRCC versus clear cell RCC
- CD117 +ve.
- -ve in CCRCC.
- CA9 (carbonic anhydrase 9) -ve.
- +ve (strong membranous) in CCRCC.[15]
- CK7 +ve.
- -ve in CCRCC.
Others:
- DOG1 +ve (Swalchick et al.[16] 32 +ve of 37 cases; Zhao et al.[17] 32 +ve of 32 cases).
- Useful in ChRCC versus clear cell RCC.
A panel:
- CK7, PAX8, CD117, CD10, Mueller-Mowry stain.
Molecular
- Extensive aneusomy (monosomy?):[18]
- Loss of chromosomes: 1, 2, 6, 10, 13, 17, 21.
EM
Ultrastructural features:[19]
- Microvesicles.
- Complex plicated cell membrane.

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.
Micro
The sections show a tumour composed of compact nests. The cytoplasm is abundant and eosinophilic. Perinuclear clearing is prominent. Binucleation is frequent and the nuclear membranes moderately irregular to round. No definite papillae or macrophages are present. Nucleoli are not prominent.
