L1 Cell Adhesion Molecule (L1CAM) Expression and Molecular Alterations Distinguish Low-Grade Oncocytic Tumor From Eosinophilic Chromophobe Renal Cell Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Renal low-grade oncocytic tumor (LOT) is a recently recognized renal cell neoplasm designated within the "other oncocytic tumors" category in the 2022 World Health Organization classification system. Although the clinicopathologic, immunohistochemical, and molecular features reported for LOT have been largely consistent, the data are relatively limited. The morphologic overlap between LOT and other low-grade oncocytic neoplasms, particularly eosinophilic chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (E-chRCC), remains a controversial area in renal tumor classification. To address this uncertainty, we characterized and compared large cohorts of LOT (n = 67) and E-chRCC (n = 69) and revealed notable differences between the 2 entities. Clinically, LOT predominantly affected women, whereas E-chRCC showed a
