Acquired cystic disease-associated renal cell carcinoma, abbreviated ACD-RCC, is a rare kidney cancer that arises in the context of chronic renal failure.
It was added to the WHO classification of renal neoplasia in the Vancouver modification of 2012/2013.[1]
General
- Arise in the context of acquired cystic disease of the kidney which is seen in the context of end-stage renal disease (ESRD).[2]
- May have aggressive course - including lymph node metastases and death.[3]
Gross
- Cysts.
Microscopic
Features:
- Fused tubular structures/cribriforming/sieve-like architecture.[4]
- Focal papillary architecture - common.[3]
- Tumour cells have prominent nucleoli (ISUP nucleolar grade 3) and eosinophilic cytoplasm.
- Oxalate crystals - important.
- Look somewhat like cholesterol clefts.
- Seen easily in polarized light.
- Acquired cystic disease in background - required.
- Changes of end-stage kidney (obsolete glomeruli, thyroidization, interstitial fibrosis).
DDx:
- Acquired cystic disease of the kidney.
- Papillary renal cell carcinoma.
- Hereditary leiomyomatosis renal cell carcinoma syndrome associated renal cell carcinoma.
