Juxtaglomerular cell tumour, abbreviated JCT, is a rare kidney tumour.

It is also known as juxtaglomerular tumour and reninoma.[1]

General

  • Rare.
  • Etiology: increased renin.

Clinical:[1]

  • Hypertension.
  • Increased aldosterone.
    • Causes hypokalemia.
  • Increased plasma renin.

Microscopic

Features:[2]

  • Polygonal cells.
  • Abundant granular, eosinophilic cytoplasm.[3]
  • Perinuclear halo.
