Papillary renal neoplasm with reverse polarity is a rare renal tumour and evolving entity.[1]

General

Micro

Features:[1]

  • Branching papillae with:
    • Thin fibrovascular cores.
    • Cuboidal to columnar lining cells with granular eosinophilic cytoplasm.
      • May have occasional cytoplasmic clearing.
    • Smooth luminal borders.
    • Reverse polarized nuclei (luminal nuclei; nuclei closer to lumen than basement membrane).
    • Nucleoli absent or small.
