Focusing on the pathology of renal tumors, this work addresses the history of renal cancer classification, reporting of tumor-containing kidney specimen, molecular aspects of familial renal cell carcinoma, RCC subtyping and grading, and immunohistochemical staining in renal neoplasms.

This book focuses on the pathology of renal tumors. Articles will discuss: metanephric neoplasms; translocation kidney carcinomas; oncocytic renal neoplasms; nephroblastic neoplasms; clear renal cell carcinoma; and renal neoplasms of possible collecting duct or loop of henle origin. In addition, the history of renal cancer classification, reporting of tumor-containing kidney specimen, molecular aspects of familial renal cell carcinoma, RCC subtyping and grading, and immunohistochemical staining in renal neoplasms are addressed.
