Xp11.2 translocation renal cell carcinoma with TFE3 gene fusion: A case report

Abstract: Abstract. Xp11.2 translocation renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with transcription factor E3 (TFE3) gene fusion is a rare tumor, and the prognosis of this tumor is poorer compared with that of other subtypes of RCC. The patient presented herein was a 70-year-old man who presented with a solid mass sized ~8.2x6.1 cm in the right kidney and underwent radical right nephrectomy. Following pathological and immunohistochemical (IHC) examination and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), the patient was diagnosed with X… Show more

“…ii) DNp73, a subtype of p73, is involved in the proliferation, metastasis, and invasion of tumor cells, mainly by stimulating the expression of Cola1 and PAI-1 receptors in the TGF-β signaling pathway (25). Certain relations between the occurrence, development, and prognosis of various malignant tumors and the p73 are recognized (26,27).…”

“…This rare variant of RCC is more frequently diagnosed in pediatric patients and rarely in adults, with women having a slightly higher incidence than men [ 4 ]. The prevalence of Xp 11.2 TRCC is 20-40% among pediatric renal tumors, whereas in the adult population, a low prevalence of only 1-1.6% is noted [ 5 ]. Exact data on the prognosis of this rare carcinoma are yet to be known; however, cases diagnosed in children with isolated lymph node metastasis have a comparatively favorable outcome [ 1 ].…”

“…Patient and Tumor Characteristics at Xp11.2 tRCC Diagnosis.Cox Analyses for PFS and OS for Patients in Larger SeriesFor studies including more than 12 patients, a separate analysis was conducted, involving 11 studies with 218 patients[24,25,37,52,55,59,61,67,72,74,80]. In multivariable analyses, the T stage at presentation was significantly associated with PFS (HR: 7.73; 95% CI: 3.09 to 19.33; p < 0.001; Supplementary Appendix Table1).…”
