Abstract:
TFE3/TFEB translocation renal cell carcinoma(TFE3/TFEB tRCC)occupies a prominent position in the molecular pathological classification of renal cancers due to its distinctive genetic abnormalities and its clinical pre-dilection for younger patients.Over nearly two decades of research,the spectrum of TFE3/TFEB fusion partner genes has expanded,highlighting the increasing morphological heterogeneity of TFE3/TFEB tRCC.This article reviews the clinicopathological and molecular features of TFE3/TFEB tRCC,emphasizing the associations between the major fusion subtypes and their morphological manifestations as well as immunophenotypes.Additionally,the practical value of an-cillary diagnostic techniques,such as molecular testing,is summarized,aiming to provide a reference for the routine and differential diagnosis of TFE3/TFEB tRCC.
