Recognized kidney tumours with clear cells or pale cytoplasm:
- Clear cell renal cell carcinoma.
- Clear cell papillary renal cell tumour (previously clear cell papillary renal cell carcinoma).
- ELOC-mutated renal cell carcinoma.
- Renal cell carcinoma with fibromyomatous stroma.[1][2]
- Xp11.2 translocation carcinoma.
- Epithelioid angiomyolipoma.[citation needed]
- Multilocular cystic renal neoplasm of low malignant potential.
- Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma - not really "clear" cells.
Evolving entities:
Benign things:
- Benign cortical cyst of the kidney.
- Benign clear cell clusters of the kidney.
- Adrenal gland cortex - biopsy of wrong anatomical site.
