Collecting duct carcinoma, also known as Bellini duct carcinoma[1] and carcinoma of the collecting ducts of Bellini, is a rare aggressive kidney tumour.
It should not be confused with tubulocystic carcinoma of the kidney (also known as low-grade collecting duct carcinoma).
General
- Rare.
- Poor prognosis.
- Usually central location.
- Typically young adults.
Gross
- Medullary location - as opposed to cortical.[2]
Microscopic
Features:[3]
- Tubular structures with tapered ends.
- May be described as tubulopapillary.
- Hobnail pattern - cell width smaller at basement membrane than free surface.[4]
- High grade nuclear features (nuclear pleomorphism).
- High mitotic rate.
Notes:
- Benign urothelium must present to excluded urothelial carcinoma.
- Desmoplastic stroma may be prominent.
DDx:
- Papillary renal cell carcinoma.
- Urothelial carcinoma with glandular differentiation.
- Metastatic adenocarcinoma.
- Renal medullary carcinoma - typically younger, sickle cell trait.
- Hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell carcinoma syndrome-associated renal cell carcinoma.
