Renal cell carcinoma with fibromyomatous stroma, abbreviated RCC FMS, is an evolving subtype of renal cell carcinoma.[1]
Renal cell carcinoma with leiomyomatous stroma redirects here.
General
- Rare tumour: 12 in >500 renal cell carcinomas with clear cells.[2]
Microscopic
Features:[2]
- Fibromyomatous stroma (smooth muscle stroma) - key feature.
- Varied architecture: nested, solid, tubular, tubulopapillary.
- WHO/ISUP grade 3 or 4.
- Nuclei not polarized in the cell.
DDx:
- Clear cell renal cell carcinoma.
- ELOC-mutated renal cell carcinoma.
- Clear cell papillary renal cell tumour.
IHC
Features:[2]
- CD10 +ve.
- CK7 +ve (most).
- CA9 +ve.
Comparison between some renal tumours with clear cells
| Tumour | CK7 | CD10 | CK34betaE12 (K903) | GPNMB |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Clear cell renal cell carcinoma | -ve (may be focal) | +ve | -ve | usu. -ve |
| Clear cell papillary renal cell tumour | +ve (diffuse) | -ve | +ve | -ve[3] |
| ELOC-mutated renal cell carcinoma | +ve | +ve | -ve | -ve |
| Renal cell carcinoma with fibromyomatous stroma | +ve | +ve | -ve | +ve |
Molecular
- TSC/mTOR pathway mutation.[2]
- A somewhat non-specific finding as several renal tumours (with a different morphology) have TSC/mTOR pathway mutations.

- RENAL CELL CARCINOMA with clear cells, cysts and leiomyomatous stroma, see comment.
-- Margin clear.
-- Please see synoptic report for details.
Comment:
The tumour stains as follows:
POSITIVE: CD10 (moderate), EMA (patchy), CK7 (diffuse), PAX8 (diffuse).
NEGATIVE: CK34betaE12, CK20.
The differential diagnosis includes: (1) clear cell renal cell carcinoma, (2) RCC with a mTOR pathway mutation, and (3) ELOC-mutated RCC.
