EPITHELIOID HEMANGIOENDOTHELIOMA

ALVEOLAR SOFT TISSUE SARCOMA

Alternate names

ALVEOLAR SOFT TISSUE SARCOMA Is also known as alveolar soft part sarcoma, asps

Description

Alveolar soft part sarcoma is an unusual tumor with highly characteristic histopathology and ultrastructure, controversial histogenesis, and enigmatic clinical behavior (Lieberman et al., 1989; Ordonez, 1999). The typical histology of ASPS shows well-defined nests of cells with abundant pink cytoplasm. The loss of central cohesion produces a pseudoalveolar appearance (Ladanyi et al., 2001).

Most common symptoms of ALVEOLAR SOFT TISSUE SARCOMA

  • Neoplasm
  • Pain
  • Headache
  • Cough
  • Chest pain

RENAL CELL CARCINOMA, XP11-ASSOCIATED; RCCX1

Description

Xp11 translocation renal cell carcinomas (RCCX1) are a group of neoplasms distinguished by chromosomal translocations with breakpoints involving the TFE3 gene within tumor cells. The result is a TFE3 transcription factor gene fusion with 1 of multiple reported genes including ASPRCR1 (OMIM ) on chromosome 17q25 and PRCC (OMIM ) on 1q21, and more rarely, NONO (OMIM ) on Xq13, SFPQ (OMIM ) on 1p34, CLTC (OMIM ) on 17q23, and unknown genes on chromosomes 3 and 10. Xp11 translocations are often found in pediatric tumors and less commonly in adults. However, adult cases may outnumber pediatric cases since renal cell carcinoma is more common in the adult population. Prior chemotherapy is a known risk factor for Xp11 translocations. Histology shows both clear cells and papillary architecture, often with abundant psammoma bodies, although variable histologic features have been observed (review by Ross and Argani, 2010).For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of renal cell carcinoma, see RCC (OMIM ).

Most common symptoms of RENAL CELL CARCINOMA, XP11-ASSOCIATED; RCCX1

  • Neoplasm
  • Carcinoma
  • Renal cell carcinoma

MIT FAMILY TRANSLOCATION RENAL CELL CARCINOMA

Alternate names

MIT FAMILY TRANSLOCATION RENAL CELL CARCINOMA Is also known as carcinoma associated with mitf/tfe translocation, translocation renal cell carcinoma

Description

MiT family translocation renal cell carcinoma (t-RCC) is a rare subtype of renal cell carcinoma with recurrent genetic abnormalities, harboring rearrangements of the TFE3 (Xp11 t-RCC) or TFEB [t(6;11) t-RCC] genes. The t(6;11) t-RCC has distinctive histologic features of biphasic appearance with larger epitheloid and smaller eosinophilic cells. The symptoms are usually non-specific and include hematuria, flank pain, palpable abdominal mass and/or systemic symptoms of anemia, fatigue and fever.
