Type 1 PRCC, also known as a renal tumor caused by a genetic predisposition of hereditary papillary renal cancer syndrome, compromises approximately 25% of all PRCCs. [14] [15] In the perspective of immunochemistry, it has a profile of strong CK7 and alpha-methyl acyl-CoA racemase (AMACR) expression at most focal CA-IX expression. [16]
Like other cancers, kidney cancer is measured in stages. •Stage 1, the tumour has not spread and is localized. This accounts for 65% of cases of kidney cancer and 92.5% of people with stage 1 kidney cancer survive 5 years. •Stage 2 and 3, the tumour has grown larger and has spread and started to affect regional tissues and lymph nodes.

Clear cell papillary renal cell carcinoma (CCPRCC) is a rare subtype of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) that has microscopic morphologic features of papillary renal cell carcinoma and clear cell renal cell carcinoma, yet is pathologically distinct based on molecular changes and immunohistochemistry.
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a kidney cancer that originates in the lining of the proximal convoluted tubule, a part of the very small tubes in the kidney that transport primary urine. RCC is the most common type of kidney cancer in adults, responsible for approximately 90–95% of cases. [ 1 ]
Collecting duct carcinoma (CDC) is a type of kidney cancer that originates in the papillary duct of the kidney. It is rare, accounting for 1-3% of all kidney cancers. [ 2 ] It is also recently described; a 2002 review found just 40 case reports worldwide. [ 3 ]
It is an important structure that plays a critical role in the formation of male reproductive organs. The duct is named after Caspar Friedrich Wolff, a German physiologist and embryologist who first described it in 1759. [1] During embryonic development, the mesonephric ducts form as a part of the urogenital system. [2]
Hybrid oncocytoma/chromophobe carcinoma, found in 50% of cases, [8] is the most commonly found cancer, followed by chromophobe renal carcinoma, clear cell renal carcinoma, renal oncocytoma, and papillary renal cell carcinoma. [5] [8] People over 40 years old and men are more likely to develop kidney tumors, which are diagnosed at a median age ...
