Abstract Background To compare the clinicopathologic parameters and oncologic outcomes between type 1 and type 2 papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC). Methods This study was approved by the review board (NO.XYFY2019-KL032–01). Between 2007 and 2018, 52 consecutive patients who underwent surgery at a single tertiary referral hospital were included. Clinicopathologic and survival data were collected and entered into a database. The Kaplan-Meier method, and univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analyses were performed to estimate progression-free survival (PFS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS). Results Of the 52 patients, 24 (46.2%) were diagnosed with type 1 PRCC, and 28 (53.8%) had type 2 PRCC. The mean tumor size was 4.8 ± 2.5 cm. The two subtypes displayed different morphological features: foamy macrophages were more common in type 1 PRCC, while eosinophils and microvascular angiolymphatic invasion were more frequent in type 2 PRCC. Type 2 cases showed higher tumor stage and World Health Organization/International Society of Urological Pathology (WHO/ISUP) grade than type 1 cases (T3-T4: 43% vs 17%, P = 0.041; G3-G4: 43% vs 8%, P = 0.005). In univariate analysis, type 2 PRCC had a lower probability for PFS and CSS than patients with type 1 PRCC (P = 0.016, P = 0.049, log-rank test, respectively). In multivariate analysis, only WHO/ISUP grade (HR 11.289, 95% CI 2.303–55.329, P = 0.003) and tumor size (HR 1.244, 95% CI 1.034–1.496, P = 0.021) were significantly associated with PFS. Conclusions PRCC subtype displayed different morphological features: foamy macrophages, eosinophils and microvascular angiolymphatic invasion are pathologic features that may aid in the distinction of the two subtypes. Histologic subtype of PRCC is not an independent prognostic factor and only WHO/ISUP grade and tumor size were independent predictors for PFS. |
