Recently Described and Emphasized Entities of Renal Neoplasms

Archives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine | August 1, 2007| | Copyright

Context.-Recent advances of molecular biology and cytogenetics of renal cancer have resulted in the new classification of renal neoplasms and a number of subtypes are identified and emphasized. In addition, rare nonepithelial renal neoplasms are identified and characterized. Familiarity with these entities will help make the most accurate diagnosis and guide the treatment and follow-up of patients with renal neoplasm.

Objective.-To review the clinicopathologic entities of renal neoplasms that are recently defined or emphasized. Their clinical, gross, microscopic, and immunohistochemical ...
