Renal tumour with t(6;11) translocation, also t(6;11) renal cell carcinoma, is a rare kidney tumour seen primarily in children.

TFEB-rearranged renal cell carcinoma
Diagnosis in short

Renal cell carcinoma with morphology suggestive of TFEB RCC. H&E stain.
LM solid architecture with occasional rosette-like structures; two cell populations (1) large epithelioid cells with clear to eosinophilic cytoplasm, (2) small lymphocyte-like cells
LM DDx renal cell carcinoma, unclassified, angiomyolipoma (epithelioid)
IHC TFEB +ve (nuclear staining), HMB-45 +ve, TFE3 -ve
Molecular t(6;11)(p21;q12)
Site kidney - see kidney tumours
Clinical history typically children or young adults
Prevalence very rare ~ 2 dozen reported cases
Prognosis aggressive (?)
Clin. DDx other kidney tumours
Treatment nephrectomy

It also known as TFEB RCC.[1]

It was added to WHO classification of renal neoplasia in the 2012 Vancouver modification.[2]

This entity should not be confused with TCEB1-mutated renal cell carcinoma, an evolving kidney tumour that is not in the WHO classification of renal neoplasia.

General

  • Very rare - approximately 2 dozen reported cases as of 2014.[1][3]
  • Lymph node metastases are common.
  • Traditionally thought of as a pediatric tumour... but cases in adults are reported.[1][4]

Microscopic

Features:[5]

  • Solid with occasional rosette-like structures.
  • Two cell populations:
    1. Large epithelioid cells with clear to eosinophilic cytoplasm.
    2. Small lymphocyte-like cells.

IHC

  • TFEB +ve (nuclear staining).
  • HMB-45 +ve[1] (focal[7]).
  • TFE3 -ve.

Molecular

  • t(6;11)(p21;q12) MALAT1[8]/TFEB.[9]
