Abstract
CONTEXT.— Urinary and Male Genital Tumours is the 8th volume of the World Health Organization Classification of Tumours series, 5th edition. Released in hard copy in September 2022, it presents an update to the classification of male genital and urinary tumors in the molecular age. Building upon previous volumes in this series, significant effort has been made to harmonize terminology across organ systems for biologically similar tumors (eg, neuroendocrine tumors). Genomic terminology has been standardized and genetic syndromes covered more comprehensively. This review presents a concise summary of this volume, highlighting new entities, notable modifications relative to the 4th edition, and elements of relevance to routine clinical practice. OBJECTIVE.— To provide a comprehensive update on the World Health Organization classification of urinary and male genital tumors, highlighting updated diagnostic criteria and terminology. DATA SOURCES.— The 4th and 5th editions of the World Health Organization Classification of Tumours: Urinary and Male Genital Tumours. CONCLUSIONS.— The World Health Organization has made several changes in the 5th edition of the update on urinary and male genital tumors that pathologists need to be aware of for up-to-date clinical practice.

Abstract
Metanephric adenoma (MA) is a rare type of benign renal epithelial tumor that can develop at any age. Nonetheless, MA is extremely rare in children and only a few cases have been reported to date. The present study aimed to report the case of a 5-year-old female found to have a mass in the right kidney during a routine pre-enrollment physical examination. Computed tomography (CT) images revealed multiple high-density calcifications in the mass, and contrast-enhanced CT and magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated that the mass was significantly enhanced in the cortical phase and decreased in the medullary phase. Based on these findings, the mass was initially diagnosed as angiomyolipoma before surgery; however, postoperative pathology confirmed the mass to be a MA. MAs are typically a type of soft tissue mass with relatively uniform density or signal, showing delayed enhancement in contrast-enhanced scanning. However, the mass found in the present study presented diffused high-density calcification, which was obvious in the early phase of contrast-enhanced scanning but weakened in the delayed enhancement phase. In conclusion, the present case study demonstrated that MA should be considered as one of the imaging differential diagnoses of fat-poor angiomyolipoma, renal carcinoma and oncocytoma.

Atypical metanephric adenoma: Shares similar histopathological features and molecular changes of metanephric adenoma and epithelial-predominant Wilms’ tumor. Front Oncol 2022; 12:1020456. [PMID: 36313688 PMCID: PMC9614227 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.1020456] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2022] [Accepted: 09/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Metanephric adenomas (MAs) are rare, benign renal tumors. Wilms’ tumors (WTs) are malignant embryonic tumors that originated from nephrogenic blastemal cells. However, some tumors have similar morphology to both MA and epithelial-predominant WT, which makes differential diagnosis difficult. We aimed to analyze the morphological, immunophenotypic and molecular changes in overlapping cases to explore their attribution. Methods and results Twenty MAs, ten WTs, and nine cases with MA/WT overlapping histological features were studied. Twenty tumors demonstrated the typical morphological spectrum of MA with high cellularity and were composed of tightly packed small, uniform, round acini with a lower Ki67 index. Almost all MAs (94.7%, 18/19) were detected with BRAF V600E mutation. The ten WTs were epithelial-predominant WTs with glands, rosettes and glomerular structures, which also showed a higher Ki-67 index (up to 60%), invasive growth patterns, and a lack of BRAF mutation. However, the other nine overlapping cases showed two components: typical MA-like areas and epithelial WT-like areas. The cells of the WT-like areas were tubular, columnar and showed marked cytological atypia, with a Ki-67 proliferative index of up to 30%. The immunophenotype of these overlapping lesions was not significantly different from that of typical MA and they positively expressed WT1 and CD57. The BRAF V600E mutation was detected in both WT-like and MA-like areas in nine overlapping tumors. The follow-up data of 31 patients were analyzed, with a median follow-up time of 66 months (range, 8-45 months). Even though most patients with WT underwent radiotherapy or chemotherapy after surgery, two died, and one had liver metastasis. No MA or overlapping cases showed any evidence of recurrence or metastasis after surgery. Conclusions The molecular changes in tumors with overlapping morphological features were the same as those of typical MA; thus, we think that these tumors should be classified as MA and further called atypical MA. It is important to note that atypical MA is not a neglected subtype of MA. It possesses different histological morphology and a higher Ki-67 index but has the common imaging characteristics, immunophenotype and gene expression as typical MA, and patients usually have a good prognosis.

Abstract
Introduction: Metanephric adenoma (MA) is an uncommon benign tumor accounting for 0.2–0.7% of adult renal epithelial neoplasms. The clinical course is often indolent, but diagnosis should not be delayed since clinical symptoms (hematuria, fever, palpable abdominal mass, and flank pain) may be non-specific and overlap with those of a malign renal neoplasm. We report on 4 cases of AM, for which morphological and mutational analysis were performed. Material and Methods: Immunohistochemical staining was performed on sections cut from paraffin blocks to assess expression of WT1, vimentin, racemase, CK7, CD10 and RCC. Testing for the BRAF gene mutation V600 was carried out using real-time PCR (Cobas® 4800). Results: In all four cases, tumors were visible as well-circumscribed, non-encapsulated masses located in the renal cortex and extending towards the medulla. At immunohistochemical examination, tumor cells stained negative for CK7, CD10 and RCC and positive for both WT1 (nuclear, intense) and vimentin (cytoplasmic, intense, and diffuse). Molecular analysis revealed the BRAF gene mutation V600E in three cases and wild-type BRAF in the fourth. Conclusions: BRAF molecular mutation analysis may aid diagnosis in cases with atypical histological features, especially in small incisional biopsies when reassessment of surgical treatment may be considered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metanephric adenoma is an extremely rare renal neoplasm, especially in pediatrics. Chemotherapy combined with surgery in metanephric adenoma has not been reported. METHODS We describe a case of metanephric adenoma in a child less than 2 years old, which were treated by chemotherapy combined with surgery. RESULTS Nephron sparing surgery was performed after regular chemotherapy, and the pathological result was metanephric adenoma. CONCLUSION Pediatric metanephric adenoma is extremely rare; the clinical manifestations and imaging examinations lack specificity. Nephron sparing surgery is recommended as the preferred treatment for metanephric adenoma. Long-term follow-up and more in-depth molecular genetic research are still needed to determine the benign or malignant of metanephric adenoma and whether chemotherapy drugs have an effect on it.

Abstract
Renal neoplasms largely favor male patients; however, there is a growing list of tumors that are more frequently diagnosed in females. These tumors include metanephric adenoma, mixed epithelial and stromal tumor, juxtaglomerular cell tumor, mucinous tubular and spindle cell carcinoma, Xp11.2 (TFE3) translocation-associated renal cell carcinoma, and tuberous sclerosis complex (somatic or germline) associated renal neoplasms. The latter category is a heterogenous group with entities still being delineated. Eosinophilic solid and cystic renal cell carcinoma is the best-described entity, whereas, eosinophilic vacuolated tumor is a proposed entity, and the remaining tumors are currently grouped together under the umbrella of tuberous sclerosis complex/mammalian target of rapamycin-related renal neoplasms. The entities described in this review are often diagnostic considerations when evaluating renal mass tissue on biopsy or resection. For example, Xp11.2 translocation renal cell carcinoma is in the differential when a tumor has clear cell cytology and papillary architecture and occurs in a young or middle-aged patient. In contrast, tuberous sclerosis complex-related neoplasms often enter the differential for tumors with eosinophilic cytology. This review provides an overview of the clinical, gross, microscopic, immunohistochemical, genetic, and molecular alterations in key renal neoplasms occurring more commonly in females; differential diagnoses are also discussed regardless of sex predilection.

New developments in existing WHO entities and evolving molecular concepts: The Genitourinary Pathology Society (GUPS) update on renal neoplasia. Mod Pathol 2021; 34:1392-1424. [PMID: 33664427 DOI: 10.1038/s41379-021-00779-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 130] [Impact Index Per Article: 43.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2020] [Revised: 02/11/2021] [Accepted: 02/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
The Genitourinary Pathology Society (GUPS) reviewed recent advances in renal neoplasia, particularly post-2016 World Health Organization (WHO) classification, to provide an update on existing entities, including diagnostic criteria, molecular correlates, and updated nomenclature. Key prognostic features for clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) remain WHO/ISUP grade, AJCC/pTNM stage, coagulative necrosis, and rhabdoid and sarcomatoid differentiation. Accrual of subclonal genetic alterations in clear cell RCC including SETD2, PBRM1, BAP1, loss of chromosome 14q and 9p are associated with variable prognosis, patterns of metastasis, and vulnerability to therapies. Recent National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines increasingly adopt immunotherapeutic agents in advanced RCC, including RCC with rhabdoid and sarcomatoid changes. Papillary RCC subtyping is no longer recommended, as WHO/ISUP grade and tumor architecture better predict outcome. New papillary RCC variants/patterns include biphasic, solid, Warthin-like, and papillary renal neoplasm with reverse polarity. For tumors with 'borderline' features between oncocytoma and chromophobe RCC, a term "oncocytic renal neoplasm of low malignant potential, not further classified" is proposed. Clear cell papillary RCC may warrant reclassification as a tumor of low malignant potential. Tubulocystic RCC should only be diagnosed when morphologically pure. MiTF family translocation RCCs exhibit varied morphologic patterns and fusion partners. TFEB-amplified RCC occurs in older patients and is associated with more aggressive behavior. Acquired cystic disease (ACD) RCC-like cysts are likely precursors of ACD-RCC. The diagnosis of renal medullary carcinoma requires a negative SMARCB1 (INI-1) expression and sickle cell trait/disease. Mucinous tubular and spindle cell carcinoma (MTSCC) can be distinguished from papillary RCC with overlapping morphology by losses of chromosomes 1, 4, 6, 8, 9, 13, 14, 15, and 22. MTSCC with adverse histologic features shows frequent CDKN2A/2B (9p) deletions. BRAF mutations unify the metanephric family of tumors. The term "fumarate hydratase deficient RCC" ("FH-deficient RCC") is preferred over "hereditary leiomyomatosis and RCC syndrome-associated RCC". A low threshold for FH, 2SC, and SDHB immunohistochemistry is recommended in difficult to classify RCCs, particularly those with eosinophilic morphology, occurring in younger patients. Current evidence does not support existence of a unique tumor subtype occurring after chemotherapy/radiation in early childhood.

Abstract
AbstractClassification of renal cell carcinomas has become more challenging. The 2016 WHO classification included 14 different subtypes and 4 emerging/provisional entities, and recent literature indicates new entities to be incorporated. Nomenclature is based on cytoplasmic appearance, architecture, combination of morphologies, anatomic location, underlying disease, familial syndromes, and specific genetic alterations. Immunohistochemistry is useful in selected cases while it can be insufficient in entities that require molecular confirmation of a specific gene alteration. The aim of these recommendations is to provide a reasonable and optimized approach for the use of ancillary tests in subtyping renal tumors, particularly in resource-limited settings.

Abstract
ALK rearranged renal cell carcinoma (ALK-RCC) has recently been included in 2016 WHO classification as a provisional entity. In this study, we describe 12 ALK-RCCs from 8 institutions, with detailed clinical, pathological, immunohistochemical (IHC), fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and next generation sequencing (NGS) analyses. Patients' age ranged from 25 to 68 years (mean, 46.3 years). Seven patients were females and five were males (M:F = 1:1.4). Tumor size ranged from 17 to 70 mm (mean 31.5, median 25 mm). The pTNM stage included: pT1a (n = 7), pT1b (n = 1), and pT3a (n = 4). Follow-up was available for 9/12 patients (range: 2 to 153 months; mean 37.6 months); 8 patients were alive without disease and one was alive with distant metastases. The tumors demonstrated heterogeneous, 'difficult to classify' morphology in 10/12 cases, typically showing diverse architectural and cellular morphologies, including papillary, tubular, tubulocystic, solid, sarcomatoid (spindle cell), rhabdoid, signet-ring cell, and intracytoplasmic vacuoles, often set in a mucinous background. Of the remaining two tumors, one showed morphology resembling mucinous tubular and spindle cell renal cell carcinoma (MTSC RCC-like) and one was indistinguishable from metanephric adenoma. One additional case also showed a focal metanephric adenoma-like area, in an otherwise heterogeneous tumor. By IHC, all tumors were diffusely positive for ALK and PAX8. In both cases with metanephric adenoma-like features, WT1 and ALK were coexpressed. ALK rearrangement was identified in 9/11 tumors by FISH. ALK fusion partners were identified by NGS in all 12 cases, including the previously reported: STRN (n = 3), TPM3 (n = 3), EML4 (n = 2), and PLEKHA7 (n = 1), and also three novel fusion partners: CLIP1 (n = 1), KIF5B (n = 1), and KIAA1217 (n = 1). ALK-RCC represents a genetically distinct entity showing a heterogeneous histomorphology, expanded herein to include unreported metanephric adenoma-like and MTSC RCC-like variants. We advocate a routine ALK IHC screening for "unclassifiable RCCs" with heterogeneous features.

Abstract
Wilms tumor is the most common renal tumor of childhood. It is a biologically and morphologically diverse entity, with ongoing studies contributing to our understanding of the pathobiology of various subgroups of patients with Wilms tumor. The interplay of histologic examination and molecular interrogation is integral in prognostication and direction of therapy. This review provides an overview of some of the challenging aspects and pitfalls in pathologic assessment of Wilms tumor, along with discussion of current and up-and-coming markers of biological behavior with prognostic significance.

Abstract
Metanephric adenoma (MA) is an uncommon benign renal tumor whose histomorphological aspect resembles that of Wilms’ tumor and papillary renal cell carcinoma. From a diagnostic and therapeutic perspective, recognition of this entity is important as it has a more favorable clinical outcome compared with Wilms’ tumor and papillary renal cell carcinoma. MA should not be treated with nephrectomy if the tumor size is small, opting for a conservative treatment. However, the preoperative diagnosis of this disease is extremely challenging. The present study describes a case of this rare disease, showing an ambiguous radiological imaging and that only after a percutaneous biopsy, was defined as a MA and treated with partial nephrectomy. Moreover, the histological diagnosis of this case was partially complicated by the equivocal immunohistochemical analysis showing negativity for BRAF VE1 staining. Only the mutational analysis demonstrated the presence of the BRAF V600K mutation (for the first time described in a case of metanephric adenoma), highlighting the necessity of sequencing in case of MA with negativity for BRAF VE1 clone.

Abstract
Background Metanephric adenoma (MA) is a rare benign renal neoplasm. On occasion, MA can be difficult to differentiate from renal malignancies such as papillary renal cell carcinoma in adults and Wilms̕ tumor in children. Despite recent advancements in tumor genomics, there is limited data available regarding the genetic alterations characteristic of MA. The purpose of this study is to determine the frequency of metanephric adenoma cases exhibiting cytogenetic aberration t (9;15)(p24;q24), and to investigate the association between t (9,15) and BRAF mutation in metanephric adenoma. Methods This study was conducted on 28 archival formalin fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) specimens from patients with pathologically confirmed MA. Tissue blocks were selected for BRAF sequencing and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis for chromosomal rearrangement between KANK1 on chromosome 9 (9p24.3) and NTRK3 on chromosome 15 (15q25.3), which was previously characterized and described in two MA cases. Results BRAFV600E mutation was identified in 62% of our cases, 9 (38%) cases were BRAFWT, and 4 cases were uninformative. Of the 20 tumors with FISH results, two (10%) were positive for KANK1-NTRK3 fusion. Both cases were BRAFWT suggesting mutual exclusivity of BRAFV600E and KANK1-NTRK3 fusion, the first such observation in the literature. Conclusions Our data shows that BRAF mutation in MA may not be as frequent as suggested in the literature and KANK-NTRK3 fusions may account for a subset of BRAFWT cases in younger patients. FISH analysis for KANK1-NTRK3 fusion or conventional cytogenetic analysis may be warranted to establish the diagnosis of MA in morphologically and immunohistochemically ambiguous MA cases lacking BRAF mutations.

Abstract
Molecular characterization has led to advances in the understanding of pediatric renal tumors, including the association of pediatric cystic nephromas with DICER1 tumor syndrome, the metanephric family of tumors with somatic BRAF mutations, the characterization of ETV6-NTRK3-negative congenital mesoblastic nephromas, the expanded spectrum of gene fusions in translocation renal cell carcinoma, the relationship of clear cell sarcoma of the kidney with other BCOR-altered tumors, and the pathways affected by SMARCB1 alterations in rhabdoid tumors of the kidney. These advances have implications for diagnosis, classification, and treatment of pediatric renal tumors.

Abstract
AIMS Metanephric adenomas (MAs) are conventionally regarded as rare renal tumours with indolent behaviour; limited case reports have described MAs with aggressive features. Conventional MAs harbour hotspot BRAF V600E mutations. A BRAF V600E senescence pathway, mediated by cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A (CDKN2A)/p16, has been proposed to confer MA benignity. Aside from BRAF, the molecular landscape in both conventional MAs and those with aggressive features has not been fully characterised. The aim of this study was to molecularly profile a series of MAs to investigate the correlation between genomic findings and clinical outcome. METHODS AND RESULTS We retrospectively examined the histomorphology and patient outcomes of 11 conventional MAs and one MA with aggressive features. Each was subjected to capture-based next-generation DNA sequencing of 479 cancer-related genes and immunohistochemical profiling. All tumours were positive for WT1 immunostaining and BRAF V600E mutation. One conventional MA contained an additional somatic BRCA2 pathogenic mutation. The MA with aggressive features had a biphasic appearance: one component was epithelial, with areas morphologically consistent with conventional MA; the second component was sarcomatous, with areas of solid and angiosarcomatous growth. Differential profiling of the two populations revealed identical BRAF, EIF1AX and TERT promoter hotspot mutations in the epithelial and sarcomatous components. Deep deletion of CDKN2A and MYC amplification were identified only in the sarcomatous component. CONCLUSIONS Although the vast majority of MAs show indolent behaviour, rare pathogenic alterations can occur in conventional MAs in addition to BRAF. Molecular profiling of a case with aggressive clinical and pathological features shows genetic evidence for malignant evolution in MAs.

Abstract
CONTEXT.— Renal tumor classification has evolved in recent decades, as evidenced by the comparable complexity of the 2016 revision to the World Health Organization Classification of Tumours of the Urinary System and Male Genital Organs. A recent expansion of the knowledge base surrounding the cells of origin and evolutionary genomic characteristics of renal tumors has led to molecular characterization of novel entities and enriched understanding of established entities. This pace of research and its implementation into clinical practice has again begun to surpass that of our own classification schemata, with significant discoveries having been made since the introduction of the 2016 revision to the World Health Organization classification. In particular, biomarkers for renal tumor diagnosis and prognosis are in translation for future clinical application. OBJECTIVES.— To provide a brief framework for clinical characterization of renal tumors rooted in morphologic assessment, to briefly review the current and future status of renal tumor biomarkers with an emphasis on practical use of these ancillary tools for accurate diagnosis, and to discuss the impact of emerging technologies and clinical trials relevant to renal cell carcinoma classification and biomarker development. DATA SOURCES.— We review recent literature relevant to renal tumor classification (including established and proposed entities), focusing on molecular characterization and biomarker assessment. CONCLUSIONS.— Accurate renal tumor diagnosis requires an up-to-date understanding of renal tumor classification, including an awareness of morphologic clues that should stimulate consideration of molecularly defined entities, as well as the ancillary biomarker testing required to confirm diagnoses.

Abstract
Wilms tumor (WT) is the most common renal malignancy of childhood and accounts for 6% of all childhood malignancies. With current therapies, the 5-yr overall survival (OS) for children with unilateral favorable histology WT is greater than 85%. The prognosis is worse, however, for the roughly 15% of patients who relapse, with only 50%–80% OS reported in those with recurrence. Herein, we describe the extended and detailed clinical course of a rare case of a child with recurrent, pulmonary metastatic, favorable histology WT harboring a BRAF V600E mutation. The BRAF V600E mutation, commonly found in melanoma and other cancers, and previously undescribed in WT, has recently been reported by our group in a subset of epithelial-predominant WT. This patient, who was included in that series, presented with unilateral, stage 1, favorable histology WT and was treated with standard chemotherapy. Following the completion of therapy, the patient relapsed with pulmonary metastatic disease, that then again recurred despite an initial response to salvage chemotherapy and radiation. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) on the metastatic pulmonary nodule revealed a BRAF V600E mutation. After weighing the therapeutic options, a novel approach with dual BRAF/MEK inhibitor combination therapy was initiated. Complete radiographic response was observed following 4 months of therapy with dabrafenib and trametinib. At 12 months following the start of BRAF/MEK combination treatment, the patient continues with a complete response and has experienced minimal treatment-related side effects. This represents the first case, to our knowledge, of effective treatment with BRAF/MEK molecularly targeted therapy in a pediatric Wilms tumor patient.

Abstract
Renal tumors comprise approximately 7% of all malignant pediatric tumors. This is a highly heterogeneous group of tumors, each with its own therapeutic management, outcome, and association with germline predispositions. Histopathology is the key in establishing the correct diagnosis, and therefore pathologists with expertise in pediatric oncology are needed for dealing with these rare tumors. While each tumor shows different histologic features, they do have considerable overlap in cell type and histologic pattern, making the diagnosis difficult to establish, if based on routine histology alone. To this end, ancillary techniques, such as immunohistochemistry and molecular analysis, can be of great importance for the correct diagnosis, resulting in appropriate treatment. To use ancillary techniques cost-effectively, we propose a pattern-based approach and provide recommendations to aid in deciding which panel of antibodies, supplemented by molecular characterization of a subset of genes, are required.

Abstract
Biphasic squamoid alveolar renal cell carcinoma (BSARCC) is a rare and recently characterized form of papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC). Herein, we describe three cases of BSARCC that were CD57+. Among a total of 90 cases of PRCC, three cases were found to be consistent with a diagnosis of BSARCC. In addition to reviewing these cases, we reviewed the relevant literature pertaining to this form of cancer and assessed the immunohistochemical staining for CD57 on the available tumor samples. The three BSARCC cases in the present study were composed of two primary populations of cells. Tumors stained positive for CK, PAX8, CK7, CK19, AMACR, EMA, and vimentin. Larger cells expressed detectable levels of cyclin D1, and expression of CD57 was limited to the larger cells. All three patients were alive and free of disease during the most recent follow-up. Our results suggest that the CD57 positivity of at least a subset of cases should necessitate their differentiation from cases of metanephric adenoma.

Abstract
Background Metanephric adenoma is a rare, benign renal neoplasm with occasional misdiagnosis. However, its molecular characterization is not fully understood. Methods In this study, we use the hybrid capture-based Next-Generation Sequencing to sequence a panel of 295 well-established oncogene or tumor suppressor genes in 28 cases of MA patients in China. Novel clinicopathological markers associated with the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway in metanephric adenoma were detected by immunohistochemistry. Results It was found that except for BRAF (22/28) mutations (c.1799 T > A, p.V600E), NF1 (6/28), NOTCH1 (5/28), SPEN (5/28), AKT2 (4/28), APC (4/28), ATRX (3/28), and ETV4 (3/28) mutations could also be detected. Meanwhile, a novel and rare gene fusion of STARD9-BRAF, CUX1-BRAF, and LOC100507389-BRAF was detected in one MA patient. In addition, although MEK phosphorylation was normally activated, the phosphorylation level of ERK was low in metanephric adenoma cases. Highly expressed p16 and DUSP6 may have contributed to these results, which maintained MA as a benign renal tumor. Conclusions This study provides novel molecular and pathological markers for metanephric adenoma, which could improve its diagnosis and increase the understanding of its pathologic mechanism.

Abstract
BRAF mutation recently has been reported in metanephric adenoma. We sought to determine the clinical and morphologic features of BRAF-mutated metanephric adenoma and to correlate BRAF mutation with BRAF V600E immunohistochemical staining results. A series of 48 metanephric adenomas and 15 epithelial-predominant nephroblastomas were analyzed for the occurrence of BRAF mutation (BRAF V600E/V600E complex, BRAF V600D, BRAF V600K and BRAF V600R) using the BRAF RGQ PCR kit (Qiagen). Immunohistochemistry was performed using monoclonal mouse antibodies against p16INK4 and VE1 (Spring Bioscience), recognizing the BRAF V600E mutant protein. Forty-one of 48 cases (85%) showed BRAF V600E mutation; none of the other BRAF variants was detected. Of 41 BRAF-mutated metanephric adenomas, 33 showed positive VE1 immunostaining (sensitivity 80%, specificity 100%); in all cases we detected p16INK4 expression regardless of BRAF mutation status. All epithelial-predominant nephroblastomas were BRAF-wild-type and none expressed VE1. The following features were associated with BRAF V600E mutation: older patients (p=0.01), female predominance (p=0.005) and the presence of a predominantly acinar architecture (p=0.003). In summary, BRAF-mutated metanephric adenomas were associated with older age, female predominance, and the presence of a predominant acinar component. A subset (20%) of BRAF-mutated metanephric adenomas was not detected by VE1 immunostaining.

Abstract
Clear cell papillary renal cell carcinoma (CCPRCC) cases were evaluated for mutations on the following genes: KRAS, NRAS, BRAF, PIK3CA, ALK, ERBB2, DDR2, MAP2K1, RET and EGFR. Four male and three female patients of age 42-74 years were evaluated. All cases were incidentally detected by ultrasound and ranged 1.8-3.5 cm. Microscopic examination showed variably tubulopapillary, tubular acinar, cystic architecture and the characteristic linear arrangement of nuclei. The cells were reactive with CK7 (strong), CA IX (cup-shape) and 34 β E12. CD10, AMACR/RACEMASE and GATA3 were negative. There were no mutations on any of the investigated genes. This preliminary observation supports the concept that CCPRCC might be indeed an indolent tumour worth it to be named as clear cell papillary neoplasm of low potential.

Abstract
Metanephric neoplasms of the kidney are uncommon, and some cases are associated with papillary carcinoma. Most cases of metanephric adenoma occur in adults, with fewer than 25 cases reported in children, and metanephric adenofibroma is even less common. The few metanephric tumors studied at the genetic level have not shown the gains of chromosomes 7 and 17 commonly seen in renal cell carcinoma, suggesting that the carcinoma arising in this setting has a separate genetic origin from the adenoma. However, the assumption that this carcinoma has the same chromosome gains as sporadic renal cell carcinoma has never been validated. We studied 4 cases of metanephric tumors in children, including 1 metanephric adenofibroma with papillary carcinoma. The composite tumor was studied by single nucleotide polymorphism array and fluorescence in situ hybridization, with the adenoma and carcinoma components analyzed separately. No copy number alterations were detected in either component. A BRAF V600E mutation has been reported in most cases of metanephric adenoma in adults. We performed BRAF V600E immunostaining and sequencing in our 4 pediatric cases. Three cases had a BRAF V600E mutation including the composite tumor, with both the adenoma and carcinoma components showing the same mutation. This finding provides the first genetic evidence that these 2 tumors are biologically linked. Ten cases each of pediatric renal cell carcinoma and Wilms tumor were immunonegative. Thus, BRAF V600E immunostaining is a helpful marker for pediatric metanephric adenoma, and additional research is required on the possible role of this mutation in the development of renal carcinoma.
