Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC):

Gross processing

As per: Kidney with tumor

Microscopic examination

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

CCRCC typically shows cells in nests or solid pattern, and a delicate branching fibrovascular network.[1]

Differential diagnosis: Kidney with tumor
If unsure, useful immunohistochemistry markers that are positive in CCRCC are vimentin, EMA, keratin, CD10, Pax2, RCC, CAIX (circumferential membranous).[1]

Grading

CCRCCs are graded by the ISUP/WHO as follows:[2][3]

  • Grade 1: Inconspicuous and basophilic nucleoli at ×400 magnification
  • Grade 4: Extreme pleomorphism or rhabdoid and/or sarcomatoid morphology

Microscopy report

  • Diagnosis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma
  • Greatest dimension (from grossing)
  • ISUP/WHO grade
  • Radicality

Example:

Kidney, left, partial nephrectomy:
  • Clear cell renal cell carcinoma, 3.2 cm in greatest dimension, ISUP/WHO grade 3.
  • Surgical margins are negative for carcinoma.
