(A) Microscopically, the renal tumor is composed of polygonal epithelioid cells with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm, pleomorphic nuclear and hyperchromatic nuclei (hematoxylin and eosin, original magnification 20Ă—), and scattered tumor giant cells and mitotic figures are frequently seen (lower right corner; hematoxylin and eosin, original magnification 40Ă—) . (B) The morphologic features of lung relapses overlapped those of the renal lesion (hematoxylin and eosin, original magnification 20Ă—). (C) and (D) Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells of renal and pulmonary lesions show HMB-45 cytoplasmic reaction. (C) DAB, 20Ă—. (D) DAB, 40Ă—.
