ABSTRACT
Hybrid oncocytic/chromophobe tumor (HOCT) of the kidney arising from a precursor oncocytosis not associated with the Birt-Hogg-Dubé (BHD) syndrome is an unusual and highly interesting neoplasm. Immunohistochemical and molecular findings suggest that HOCT is an entity distinct from both oncocytoma and chromophobe carcinoma. Although uncertainty persists regarding the factors predisposing to the development of HOCT, experimental findings suggest that it may arise due to the effect of toxins or in association with chronic kidney failure. The potential role of prior renal lymphoma in the development of oncocytosis has not hitherto been examined. We present a morphological, immunohistochemical, and molecular analysis of an HOCT arising from renal oncocytosis in conjunction with CLL affecting the kidney. The findings suggest that this tumor belongs to a family of similar neoplasms including oncocytoma, the eosinophilic variant of chromophobe renal-cell carcinoma (CRCC), and low-grade oncocytic tumor, even though these neoplasms may arise from different precursor lesions. HOCT and oncocytosis revealed the same immunohistochemical profile consistent on positivity for epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), cytokeratin 7 (Ck7), E-cadherin, CAM 5.2 and negativity for Pax-8, vimentin, renal-cell carcinoma (RCC) antigen, CD117, racemase, progesterone receptor, and CD10. The Ki-67 proliferation index was <1%. Molecular analysis of the tumor revealed the AKT3 gene mutation variant, classified as probably pathogenic, together with FOS1 gene amplification and no copy number variations (CNVs). Finally, we present a case of HOCT arising from a nonhereditary renal oncocytosis in conjunction with B lymphoma that raises interesting questions regarding pathogenesis.
