Type 2 and clear cell papillary renal cell carcinoma, and tubulocystic carcinoma: a unifying concept.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The clinical and pathological features of multiple different renal neoplasms arising in a setting of end-stage renal disease in a 72-year-old male are described. The kidney showed features of renal oncocytosis with multiple oncocytomas, hybrid tumours and chromophobe renal carcinoma. In addition, the kidney contained a type 2 papillary renal cell carcinoma, clear cell papillary and cystic renal cell carcinoma, and tubulocystic carcinoma. The occurrence of these three tumours in a setting of end-stage kidney disease is unique and suggests a common pathogenesis. Immunostaining of these tumours further suggests they are derived from similar stem cells which show immunophenotypic features of both the proximal and distal nephron.

The standard therapy for thyroid cancer is total or near total thyroidectomy, followed by the administration of radioactive iodine for remnant ablation or residual disease. Patients with radioiodine therapy are predisposed to second malignant neoplasms in organs such as central nervous system (CNS), breast, prostate, kidney, bone marrow, salivary gland, and digestive tract. Exposure to carcinog...

Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (ChRCC) is a variant of RCC with certain histological, immunohistological and cytogenetic characteristics. It is believed to arise from the intercalated cells of distal tubules and has a more favourable prognosis than other more common subtypes, clear cell and papillary RCC. Microscopically, neoplastic cells of ChRCC are typically arranged in solid sheets, trabe...

متن کاملQuick Score and H-Score Assessment of P504s (AMACR) Expression in Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) and Relation with Histologic Grade
Background and Aims: P504S (AMACR) is a mitochondrial enzyme expressed in renal cell carcinoma. Some of immunohistochemical markers in renal cell tumors are independent prognostic factor and show relation with histologic grading. AMACR expression increases with higher histological grading in different tumors; however, in RCC it is not obvious. In this study, we tried to investigate if ...

Introduction: Metastatic lesions of the oral cavity are extremely rare, accounting for approximately 1% of all malignant oral tumors. The most common primary sources of metastatic tumors in the oral region are, from the most to the least common, the breast, lung, kidney, bone, and colon. Renal cell carcinoma accounts for nearly 3% of all adult malignancies. It usually metastasizes to the lungs,...
