Def: Renal cell carcinoma is a group of malignancies arising from

the epithelium of the renal tubules.

- Usually occurs in adults ( most common at 5th & 6th decades of 

life)

- Male: female 2:1

- Bilateral in 1% cases

Aetiology

Cigarette smoking causes 39% in males

Exposure to carcinogenic arsenic compounds

Exposure to asbestos, cadmium, pesticides, fungal toxins over

prolonged periods Oestrogen implicated in over wt. persons

Genetics:

- terminal deletion of short arm of chr. 3, beginning at 3p13

seen in non-papillary carcinoma of all types except in

oncocytic & papillary types

- overexpression of p53, loss Rb gene function

Gross

- Well delineated & centred on the cortex- May arise in any portion of kidney but occurs commonly in the

poles esp upper pole

C/S

- Solid golden-yellow separated from surrounding tissue bypseudocapsule

- Occurrence of haemorrhage,necrosis, calcification & cystic

changes give the tumour a variegated appearance

characteristic of this neoplasm

many transitional forms according to the type

Types

Renal cell carcinoma, clear cell type.

Diffuse pattern of growth.

Clear cell typeThe most common type > 70-80%

Most are sporadic , in familial type it occurswith VHL disease

loss of sequences in the short arm of chr. 3

by deletion or translocation

Histologic patterns:

a. solid (most common)

b. glandular

c. papillary

d. spindled

- have a network of small, delicate, blood

vessels of uniform calibre that invest

alveolar clusters of ca cells ( this vascularpattern unique to CCRCC )

- prone to the formation of small & large

cysts

Cell morphology:

a. clear cells are polygonal, cuboidal or

columnar with distinct cell borders

Papillary type

accounts for 10-15% of renal cancers

occurs in familial & sporadic forms

characterised by papillary growth

pattern cytogenetic abnormalities:

a. trisomies of 3q,7,8,12,16,17 & loss of Y in

males pts. in sporadic form

b. trisomy 7 in familial form

has better prognosis than conventional RCC

Papillae are compressed, imparting the tumora trabecular growth pattern.

Papillary renal cell carcinoma

8/9/2019 Kidney & Urothelial Tumours

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/kidney-urothelial-tumours 18/74

The cells have a well-defined cell membrane,

faintly granular cytoplasm, and perinuclear

clear halo. The pattern of growth is solid.

Chromophobe type

- accounts for 5% of all cases

- nesting arrangement of tumour cells

- tumour cells have sharp borders &

abundant cytoplasm

- cytoplasm has pale, acidophilic quality

with a clear perinuclear region due to

+nce of cytoplasmic vesicles that stain for

Hales colloidal iron ( acidic mucin +nt)

- has better prognosis than conventional

RCC, can metastasize to lungs,liver

- can undergo a sarcomatoid change that is

prognostically unfavourable

Collecting duct carcinoma

Tumour centered in the medullary portion of 

the kidney and extends into the renal pelvis.

- contributes 1-2% of all cases, common in males

- thought to arise from intercalated cells

-lesions centred in the medullary region &

surrounded by desmoplastic reaction (tic clue)

-aggressive behaviour with distant mets at time of presentation
