HISTOPATHOLOGICAL STUDY OF RENAL TUMORS

Abstract

Background: Renal tumours comprise a diverse spectrum of neoplastic lesions with patterns that are relatively distinct for children and adults. Accurate diagnosis of most renal tumours is not possible before surgery and histopathologic evaluation.

Methods: The study was conducted in the department of pathology. For this study, the cases of renal tumors were searched from records maintained in the department of Pathology. The required clinical details were sought from the medical records department. Name, age, parentage, address and Lab number of patients was checked in the record section of the Department.

Results: Histologically, Renal cell carcinoma (RCC)- clear cell type was most common 41 (82.00% )  cases followed by granular type 4 (8.00%) cases  and Oncocytoma 3(6.00%) cases in our study.

Conclusion- The most common renal tumour was renal cell carcinoma.

Keywords: Renal tumors, clear cell, Oncocytoma.
