Tumor Classification
Clear Cell RCC
This tumor type accounts for 70-75% of all renal cell carcinoma cases (citation needed).
Description
Malignant epithelial cells with clear cytoplasm and a compact-alveolar (nested) or acinar growth pattern interspersed with intricate, arborizing vasculature. A variable proportion of cells with granular eosinophilic cytoplasm may be present. Infrequently, clear cell renal cell carcinoma has a distinct tubular pattern and rarely a pseudopapillary architecture is focally present."
