Abstract

Succinate dehydrogenase-deficient renal cell carcinoma (SDH-deficient RCC) is a rare type of renal cancer with distinct morphological features and diagnostic immunohistochemistry characterized by the absence of SDH immunostaining. The pathologists and the clinician need to be aware of this entity in view of their indolent course in most cases. We present here the first case from India of SDHB-deficient RCC.
