Undifferentiated and dedifferentiated urological carcinomas: lessons learned from the recent developments

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Loss of the morphological and immunophenotypic characteristics of a neoplasm is a well-known phenomenon in surgical pathology and occurs across different tumor types in almost all organs. This process may be either partial, characterized by transition from well differentiated to undifferentiated tumor component (=dedifferentiated carcinomas) or complete (=undifferentiated carcinomas). Diagnosis of undifferentiated carcinoma is significantly influenced by the extent of sampling. Although the concept of undifferentiated and dedifferentiated carcinoma has been well established for other organs (e.g. endometrium), it still has not been fully defined for urological carcinomas. Accordingly, undifferentiated/ dedifferentiated genitourinary carcinomas are typically lumped into the spectrum of poorly differentiated, sarcomatoid, or unclassified (NOS) carcinomas. In the kidney, dedifferentiation occurs across all subtypes of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), but certain genetically defined RCC types (SDH-, FH- and PBRM1- deficient RCC) seem to have inherent tendency to dedifferentiate. Histologically, the undifferentiated component displays variable combination of four patterns: spindle cells, pleomorphic giant cells, rhabdoid cells, and undifferentiated monomorphic cells with/without prominent osteoclastic giant cells. Any of these may occasionally be associated with heterologous mesenchymal component/s. Their immunophenotype is often simple with expression of vimentin and variably pankeratin or EMA. Precise subtyping of undifferentiated (urothelial versus RCC and the exact underlying RCC subtype) is best done by thorough sampling supplemented as necessary by immunohistochemistry (e.g. FH, SDHB, ALK) and/ or molecular studies. This review discusses the morphological and molecular genetic spectrum and the recent develoments on the topic of dedifferentiated and undifferentiated genitourinary carcinomas.
