Renomedullary interstitial cell tumour
Diagnosis in short

Renal medullary fibroma. H&E stain.

Synonyms renal medullary fibroma

LM small polygonal/stellate cells in abundant loose/myxoid stroma, +/-entrapped renal tubules
IHC alpha-SMA +ve, CD35 +ve
Gross small (usu. <3 mm), white, well-circumscribed nodule - medulla of kidney
Site kidney - see kidney tumours

Prevalence common
Prognosis benign

Renomedullary interstitial cell tumour, also known as medullary fibroma,[1] is a relatively common benign tumour of the kidney.

General

  • Benign.
  • Common autopsy finding[2] - one review says 26-41% of individuals at autopsy.[3]
    • The commonality is somewhat in dispute.[4]

Gross

  • Small, white well-circumscribed nodule in medulla.
    • Typically less than 3 mm.[3]

Microscopic

Features:[2][5]

  • Small polygonal/stellate cells.
  • Abundant loose/myxoid stroma.
  • +/-Entrapped renal tubules.[6]
