Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma, abbreviated ChRCC, is a relatively common form of renal cell carcinoma.

General

Subtypes

There are two subtypes:[4]

  • Classic.
  • Eosinophilic variant.

Gross

  • Grey-beige colour.[5]
  • Solitary, usually.‡
  • Well-circumscribed.

Note:

  • ‡ Approximately 3% are multifocal.[6]

Image

Microscopic

Classic

Features - classic type (3 P's memory device):[7][4]

  • Pale cytoplasm, with wisps of eosinophilic material; the cells are not completely clear, they have "cobwebs".
  • Perinuclear clearing, i.e. a pale halo surrounds the nucleus - key feature.
  • Periphery of cell distinct, i.e. cell membrane is easy to discern.

Notes:

  • May have psammoma bodies.
  • May be described as "plant-like"; plant cells have (thick) cell walls.
  • The perinuclear clearing is often somewhat patchy, i.e. it is usually not present in very tumour cell.

DDx:

Images

  • ChRCC - low mag. (WC/Nephron)

  • ChRCC - intermed. mag. (WC/Nephron)

  • ChRCC - high mag. (WC/Nephron)

  • ChRCC - very high mag. (WC/Nephron)

  • ChRCC - high mag. (WC/Nephron)

  • ChRCC - very high mag. (WC/Nephron)

Eosinophilic variant

Features - eosinophilic variant:[4]

  • Eosinophilic (finely granular) cytoplasm.
  • Perinuclear clearing - key feature.
  • Periphery of cell distinct.
  • Smaller cells than classic subtype.

Notes:

  1. May have psammoma bodies.

DDx:

  1. Oncocytoma - particularly the eosinophilic variant.
    • IHC may be useful to differentiate (CK7: oncocytoma = cytoplasm +ve, chromophobe = cell membrane +ve).
    • A comparison based on histomorphology: Tabular comparison between ChRCC & oncocytoma.
      • Oncocytoma typically has: no perinuclear clearing, no raisinoid nuclei, no binucleation.
  2. Clear cell RCC, eosinophilic variant.
    • Perinuclear clearing is not seen in clear cell RCC.
    • ChRCC has wisps in the cytoplasm.
  3. Renal hybrid oncocytic/chromophobe tumour.
  4. Other renal tumours with eosinophilic cytoplasm.

KIDNEY, RIGHT UPPER POLE, PARTIAL NEPHRECTOMY:
- CHROMOPHOBE RENAL CELL CARCINOMA.

COMMENT:
The sections show a mix of clear cells with wispy cytoplasm, and cells with eosinophilic
cytoplasm and perinuclear halos. There are no true papillae. 

Stains and immunostains:
Positive: CK7, CAM5.2, EMA, pankeratin, CD117, colloidal iron.
Negative: AMACR, CD10, CD68, RCC, vimentin.

Micro

The sections show a sheeting tumour with abundant and eosinophilic cytoplasm. The tumour cell cell membranes are prominent and plant-like. Perinuclear clearing is present. Binucleation is frequent and the nuclear membranes moderately irregular. No definite papillae or macrophages are present. Nucleoli are not prominent. Small blood vessels are not prominent.

Alternate

The sections show a tumour composed of compact nests. The cytoplasm is abundant and eosinophilic. Perinuclear clearing is prominent. Binucleation is frequent and the nuclear membranes moderately irregular to round. No definite papillae or macrophages are present. Nucleoli are not prominent.
