Sign out
Right Kidney (Mass Lesion), Core Biopsy:
- Benign kidney parenchyma with chronic inflammation, and a small cluster
of abnormal cells with mild atypia (lost on level 2).
- NEGATIVE for definite malignancy, see comment.
Comment:
The biopsy is likely not representative of the target and non-diagnostic.
The mild chronic inflammation is compatible with tissue adjacent to a mass lesion.
A re-biopsy is recommended.
Deepers were cut (x3). The case was partially reviewed by a urologic pathologist.

KIDNEY (LESION), LEFT, CORE BIOPSY: - RENAL PARENCHYMA. - NEGATIVE FOR MASS LESION, SEE COMMENT. COMMENT: No mass lesion is apparent in the tissue sampled. A re-biopsy should be considered. Renal parenchyma: - Glomeruli: seven glomeruli sampled, no apparent glomerular pathology on the H&E sections. - Interstitium: interstitial fibrosis is not identified. - Tubules: no pathology is apparent. - Vessels: mild atherosclerosis, no hyalinization of arterioles apparent.
