Background: The role of fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) in the diagnosis of renal malignancies is established and has been getting more precise and important over a period of time. Knowledge of the pathology of uncommon renal neoplasms along with radiological and clinical correlations often aids in correct diagnosis.

Aims: The present study aims to describe the cytomorphological and immunohistochemical findings in the varied spectrum of renal tumors, other than renal cell carcinomas (RCC).

RO and ChRCC are kidney tumours with overlapping characteristics, making differentiation between them challenging. The objective of this research is to create a radiogenomics map by correlating radiomic features to molecular phenotypes in ChRCC and RO, using resection as the gold standard. Fourteen patients (6 RO and 8 ChRCC) were included in the prospective study.

Objective: Renal oncocytoma is a benign renal tumour whose management remains heterogeneous and poorly codified. The aim of this study was to describe the management strategies and evolution of a cohort of biopsied renal oncocytomas.

Materials And Methods: We retrospectively reviewed renal oncocytomas biopsied in 2 French academic centres between 2009 and 2016.

Vimentin-negative solid eosinophilic renal tumors, such as renal oncocytoma, chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (chromophobe RCC), low-grade oncocytic tumor (LOT) of the kidney, and eosinophilic vacuolated tumor (EVT), often present diagnostic challenge to pathologists as they can have significant morphologic overlap. Recent studies have shown that the LOT is consistently positive for GATA3. To test the utility of GATA3 in this potentially challenging diagnostic setting, we investigated GATA3 expression in 48 vimentin-negative solid eosinophilic renal tumors with unequivocal diagnosis, which included 19 LOTs, 3 EVTs, 12 chromophobe RCCs, 11 renal oncocytomas (ROs), and 3 -mutated renal tumors.

Article Synopsis
  • * They typically appear as well-defined, tan or mahogany masses with a central scar, and their histology features simple cell structures that indicate low malignancy risk.
  • * A review of 17 studies showed that while there is potential for metastasis (to liver, bones, lungs), only 1.5% experienced disease progression, indicating that aggressive cancer behavior is not necessarily linked to oncocytomas.
