[TFEB-amplified renal cell carcinoma. A case report and review of the literature]. / Carcinoma de células renales asociado a amplificación del gen TFEB. Presentación de un caso y revisión de la literatura.

Renal carcinomas associated with translocation of transcription factors of the MiT/TFE family include, according to the latest World Health Organization classification, carcinomas with Xp11 translocation that involve the TFE3 gene and those with translocation t(6;11)(p21;q12) that affect the TFEB gene. Each one of these sub-types have well-defined clinicopathological and molecular characteristics. Currently, progress in molecular techniques has led to the description of neoplasms with molecular changes in these same genes but with alterations different to translocation. Thus, recently, cases have been published of TFEB-amplified renal carcinomas with prognoses that vary from cases associated with translocation and could therefore represent a new entity. We present a case of TFEB-amplified renal carcinoma with a full description of the clinicopathological characteristics and an updated revision of these neoplasms.

[From tumour to tumour: Metastasis of invasive ductal breast carcinoma to chromophobe renal cell carcinoma]. / Tumor a tumor: metástasis de carcinoma ductal infiltrante de mama sobre carcinoma de células cromófobas de riñón.

The coexistence of two or more tumours in the same patient is unusual, but even rarer is the metastasis of one tumour to another. Most reports are based on evidence from autopsies; very few refer to surgical specimens. The most common primary tumour is pulmonary carcinoma and most frequent metastatic tumour is renal clear cell carcinoma. We present the case of a 54 year-old female with a past history of infiltrating ductal carcinoma of the breast with metastases in lung, lymph nodes and bone. Three months previously to her referral to us, she had developed a renal mass and underwent nephrectomy. Histopathology revealed a renal chromophobe cell carcinoma with intratumoral breast cancer metastasis. We describe the histopathological, immunohistochemical and molecular features and review the recent literature.

[Pseudomyogenic hemangioendothelioma in the upper limb: A case report and literature review]. / Hemangioendotelioma pseudomiogénico en miembro superior: descripción de un caso y revisión de la literatura.

Pseudomyogenic hemangioendothelioma, also called epithelioid sarcoma-like hemangioendothelioma, is a rare, vascular neoplasm usually with indolent behaviour. It was introduced in the latest World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Tumours of Soft Tissue. We report a case of a 45 year-old patient presenting with a localized, palpable and slightly painful lesion in the left arm. Histologically it consisted of fascicles of spindle and epithelioid cells with ample eosinophilic cytoplasm, without nuclear pleomorphism or significant mitotic activity. Tumour cells showed diffuse expression for cytokeratin AE1/AE3, CD31 and FLI1, intact expression for INI1 and negativity for CD34. We describe the clinical, histological, molecular and immunohistochemical features of pseudomyogenic hemangioendothelioma and review the pertinent literature.
