IHC result, not clinically validated FISH

An outside TFE3 immunostain is POSITIVE in the renal cell carcinoma. 

This suggests the tumour is an Xp11 TRANSLOCATION (RENAL CELL) CARCINOMA.

Note:
TFE3 breakapart FISH testing was done at XXXX. Details are in report YYYY. 
This testing is not validated for clinical use; however, the findings are 
in keeping the TFE3 immunostaining.

Negative TFE3 IHC

A TFE3 immunostain was done and is NEGATIVE in the renal cell carcinoma. The control tissue 
stains appropriately.

Overall, the findings are in keeping with CLEAR CELL RENAL CELL CARCINOMA.
