Nephrogenic adenoma, also known as mesonephric adenoma,[1] and nephrogenic metaplasia, is a rare lesion that is classically in the urinary bladder and can mimic adenocarcinoma.

General

Features:[2]

  • Benign.
    • May mimic adenocarcinoma!
  • Classic location is the urinary bladder.
    • Also reported in ureter and prostatic urethra.
  • It is thought to result from displacement of renal tubular cells, as this entity in renal transplant recipients is graft derived.[3]

Microscopic

Features:[2]

  • Tubular structures - key feature.
    • Hobnailed cells.
    • +/-Thick eosinophilic basement membrane.
    • Microcystic appearance.
  • Usually associated with chronic inflammation.

Notes:

  • May mimic vascular/lymphatic channels - can be sorted-out with IHC.

IHC

Features:[5]

  • CK7 +ve.
  • PAX2 +ve.
  • PAX8 +ve.
  • AMACR +ve/-ve.

Others:[2]

  • p53 -ve.
  • CEA -ve.
  • Ki-67 low (<5%).
