trisomy 7,16,17 loss of Y tend to have better prognosis
|
|
what is the gene basis for chromophobe renal carcinoma

least common subtype
chromosome losses and deletions but no specific gene known |
|
what is the classic triad of renal cell carcinoma
|
eostovertebral pain, palpable mass, hematuria
only seen in 10% of cases |
|
what is the presentation of renal cell carcinoma
|
classic triad
paraneoplastic syndrome-could cause any of a number of issues tends to metastasize widely(lungs, bones) 5 year survival 45% up to 70% with no metastaic diseaes nephrectomey treatment of choice |
|
what is the gross morphology of renal cell carcinoma?
|
yellowish tumor wth focal hemorrhage and necorsis, tends to invade renal vein
|

clear cell- solid, trabecular, tubular
cells rounded, polygonal rich think walled vascular network in septa |
|
what is the character of urothelial cancer of renal pelvis
|
5-10% of renal tumors
manifest earlier due to hematuria or obstuction 50% associated with bladder tumor |
|
how can you tell on microscopy of biopsy if urothelial cancer is present?
|
there should be 7 layers if more then its neoplastic
|
|
what is ureteritis follicularis
|
aggregates of lymphocyts in teh subeptihelial regions cause a slight elevation of the mucosa producing a fine granular suface
