Thightly packed glands of acinar prostatic adenocarcinoma mimicking cribriform GG4...the way to tell them apart is to look at high magnification and find/exclude the surounding stroma/collagen bundles (marked with green in the last picture)

The MiT/TFE family of transcription factors comprises MITF, TFE3, TFEB, and TFEC.
MITF/ TFE3/ TFEB-altered RCC have been reported.
Possibly, the first report of TFEC-rearranged RCC (@Human_Pathology)?

How to grade prostate cancer in small biopsy specimens remains one of the most challenging and controversial areas in daily urologic pathology practice.
This recent review article published in Urologic Clinics of North America, “Prostate Cancer Grading: An Update,” by Drs. John Hanna, Gennady Bratslavsky, Jeffrey S. Ross, Oleksandr Kravtsov, provides an excellent practical overview of many real-world diagnostic dilemmas encountered in prostate biopsy interpretation.
The review discusses contemporary Gleason grading, Grade Groups, quantification of Gleason pattern 4, cribriform morphology, intraductal carcinoma, grading pitfalls in minute tumor foci, interobserver variability, and emerging AI applications in prostate pathology.

Here is another spindle cell neoplasm. 🤔
Bland-looking spindle cells with eosinophilic cytoplasm, oval nuclei, and small round nucleoli.
What would be your diagnosis?

Research identifies a high-grade renal cell carcinoma with a somatic BRCA2 mutation, showcasing unique histological patterns. This case reinforces shared features among previously reported cases, suggesting a distinct subtype of RCC.
