Clear cell tumours are found in a number of organs. Thus, it is important to have a list of 'em in one's head so one doesn't misdiagnose something.

Clear cell in the name

Skin

Gynecologic tract

Genitourinary tract

Gastrointestinal tract

Head and neck pathology

Soft tissue pathology

Other tumours with clear cytoplasm
