Pathology findings    

fiogf49gjkf0d
MAIN PATHOLOGIC FINDINGS
Histologically the tumour showed sheets of cells having clear polygonal cytoplasm rich in glycogen, with round, uniform and bland-appearing nuclei without mitosis. No whorls, clear cytoplasmic inclusions or psammomatous bodies were observed. The stroma displayed prominent collagen bundles of varying size, closely associated with the tumour cells.
Immunohistochemically, the tumour cells were positive for vimentin and epithelial membrane antigen and negative for cytokeratin, S-100 and glial fibrillary acidic protein.

Realmente una rareza, sobre todo la localización. Las células claras recuerdan un poco las del seminoma. Felicidades!!!

Congratulations for such interesting case. We have had one recently but of angiomatous variant.

Muy interesante. Llama la atención la presencia de linfocitos. Felicidades.

Precioso caso; encontré una calcosfera, lo que aunado a los nidos de células claras me ayudo sustancialmente a establecer el diagnóstico.
