Eosinophilic vacuolated tumour, abbreviated EVT, is a kidney tumour type currently not recognized by the WHO classification as per the 2016 Blue Book.
It was previously known as high-grade oncocytic tumour, abbreviated HOT.[1]
General
- Previously lumped into renal hybrid oncocytic/chromophobe tumour.
- Evolving entity.
- May be seen within the context of tuberous sclerosis.[2]
Microscopic
Features:[3]
- Abundant oncocytic cytoplasm with prominent intracytoplasmic vacuoles.
- Round nuclei
- No "raisinoid" nuclei typical of chromophobe RCC.
- Prominent nucleoli (ISUP nucleolar grade 3).
- No perinuclear halos.
DDx:
- Renal oncocytoma.
- Renal hybrid oncocytic/chromophobe tumour.
- Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma.
- Other renal tumours with eosinophilic cytoplasm.

IHC
Features:[3]
- PAX8 +ve.
- AE1/AE3 +ve.
- CK18 +ve.
- SDHB +ve.
- CD10 +ve (12 of 13 cases).
- HMB45 -ve.
- Melan A -ve.
- TFE3 -ve.
- CD117 +ve (9 of 14 cases).
Others:
- CD56 +ve.[citation needed]
- Typically negative in renal oncocytoma.
Molecular
- TSC1 or TSC2 mutation - see renal neoplasms with TSC/mTOR pathway mutations.
