Overview
Microscopic Pathology
The characteristics of cystic nephromas include:
- Cysts lined by a simple epithelium with a hobnail morphology （i.e. the nuclei of the cyst lining epithelium bulges into the lumen of the cysts）
- Ovarian-like stroma
- Spindle cell morphology
- Basophilic cytoplasm
Cystic nephromas have an immunostaining pattern like ovarian stroma; they are positive for:
- Estrogen receptor (ER)
- Progesterone receptor (PR)
- CD10
