Renal Tumors Tumors of kidney
Renal cell carcinoma • Male > Female :: age 50-70 years. • Risk : • Smoking, cadmium ( food, battery or plastic factory, Cigarettes) • Acquired cystic disease, von- hippel Lindau syndrome ( Ch 3) .
Morphology • Gross: • Yellow, circumscribed mass in upper pole • Invade renal vein→ vena cave and reach right heart ( metastasis). • Invade adrenal → Addison disease. • Microscopic types: • Clear cell carcinoma= MOST COMMON • Papillary carcinoma • Chromophobe carcinoma
RCC ( clear cell carcinoma) Cancer cells with clear cytoplasm. It contain glycogen. PAS +ve.
RCC • Metastasis: Lung and bone • Bone: produce osteolytic lesion and cause pathological fracture. • Marker of bone mets.: ↑alkaline phosphatase
Clinical for all RCC • Silent • Classic triad: Hematuria, mass, pain or fever. • Paraneoplastic syndromes: • Polycythemia ( erythropoietin):: Hct > 60% • Hypercalcemia ( PTH like hormone) • Cushing syndrome ( ACTH) • Feminization / Musculinization (↑ gonadotrophin).
Wilms tumor ( nephroblastoma) Age: 2-5 y, present as abdominal mass extended into the pelvis. Syndromes: WAGR syndrome Denys-Drash Syndrome Beckwith-widemann Syndrome Genes: WT 1 ( Ch11p13) and WT 2 (11p15). (tumor suppressor gene)
Morphology and prognosis • Gross: lobulated, tan mass • Micro: • Blastemal cells • Epithelial elements • Stroma • Prognosis: • Excellent, long term survival 90%
Morphology Small blue blastemal cells
Transitional cell carcinoma in renal pelvis. Note: Papillary growth; irregular cauliflower like surface. May follow acetaminophen poisoning.
TUMORS OF THE URINARY BLADER AND COLLECTING SYSTEM Usual Type -Transitional Cell Carcinoma (TCC) (Urothelial Neoplasm) Tumors of the Lower urinary tract are about twice as common as renal Cell carcinomas.
It frequently produces obstructive features (common than metastasis).
Types • Transitional cell carcinoma • Squamous cell carcinoma
Transitional cell carcinoma • Male > female :: Age: 40-60 years • Risk (carcinogens) • Smoking • beta naphthylamine, • Chronic cystitis • Aniline dye.
Types:superficial (non invasive) and deep. Most TCC are Papillary tumor, Produce cauliflower like mass
Cauliflower like mass Superficial Papillary tumor
Genes • Superficial neoplasm (tumors): • deletion of Ch 9 • Invasive bladder neoplasm : • Mutation of Rb and TP53 gene.
Squamous cell carcinoma Common in Middle east Risk: Schistosoma hematobium (host is snail). Micro: squamous cell carcinoma
Clinical of all bladder tumor • Pain less hematuria • Urine: atypical cells • Prognosis: • High incidence of recurrence. • Depends upon grade and stage • Bad prognosis • High pleomorphism ( anaplasia) of the cells. • Invasion
Angiomyolipoma. • A hamartoma • Micro: Blood vessels, fat, smooth muscle • Associated with: tuberous sclerosis
