TFE3-rearranged renal cell carcinoma
Diagnosis in short

Xp11.2 translocation carcinoma. H&E stain.

LM large cells with clear or eosinophilic cytoplasm, calcification (classic histomorphologic feature), +/-papillae, +/-nests, +/-psammoma bodies (common), +/-hyaline bodies (common)
LM DDx clear cell renal cell carcinoma, papillary renal cell carcinoma, epithelioid angiomyolipoma, clear cell papillary renal cell carcinoma
IHC TFE3 +ve (nucleus), CD10 +ve, vimentin +ve, CK7 -ve (usu.)
Molecular translocation involving TFE3, e.g. t(X;1)(p11.2;q21)
Site kidney - see kidney tumours

Prevalence rare
Prognosis poor
Clin. DDx other kidney tumours

Renal tumour with Xp11.2 translocation, also Xp11.2 translocation carcinoma, is an uncommon malignant kidney tumour.

General

  • Defined by the presence of a fusion gene formed with TFE3 @ Xp11.2.
  • TFE3 is the gene involved in the translocation seen in alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS).
  • Poor prognosis ~ 50% present at stage IV, majority of lymph node metastases.
  • ~1/3 of childhood RCC.[1]

Microscopic

Features:[2]

  • Large cells.
  • Clear or eosinophilic cytoplasm.
  • Papillae or nests.
  • Psammoma bodies - common.[3]
    • Calcification is considered the classic histomorphologic feature.
  • Hyaline bodies - common.

IHC

  • TFE3 +ve (nucleus) - key feature.[2]
  • CD10 +ve.
  • Vimentin +ve.
  • CK7 -ve.
    • Positive in ~20% of cases.[4]

Others:

Notes:

  • A longer list of less common markers is covered by Argani et al.[5]

Molecular

  • Translocation involving TFE3.
    • The most common are:[6]
      • t(X;1)(p11.2;q21) PRCC-TFE3.[2]
      • t(X;17)(p11;q25) ASPSCR1-TFE3.
