Pediatric Renal Cell Carcinoma
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We describe the clinical features, outcome, pathology, cytogenetics, and molecular aspects of 13 pediatric papillary renal cell carcinomas during a 19-year period. Seven cases (54%) had translocations involving Xp11.2 (TFE3). They were identified by cytogenetic, molecular, and/or immunohistochemical analyses. All Xp11.2+ translocations were TFE3+ by immunostaining. Cytogenetic and/or polymerase chain reaction analyses identified 3 cases with t(X17) and 1 case with t(1;17), and all had additional translocations. Histologic features in common in TFE3+ tumors also were present in some TFE3- tumors. One TFE3- tumor had complex cytogenetic abnormalities, 55XY,+2,del(3)(p14),+7,+8,+12,+13,+16,+17,+20[11 ], and 2 cases had normal karyotypes. None had t(6;11)/TFEB+ immunostaining. Five cases had focal, weak MITF tumor immunostaining. The key clinical findings were as follows: (1) The presence of an Xp11.2 (TFE3) translocation frequently is associated with advanced stage at initial examination. (2) All patients who underwent complete, partial nephrectomy with clear margins (adequate only for stage 1) and resection of metastases were alive and relapse-free at last follow-up. (3) The mean +/- SD event-free survival and overall survival rates at 5 years were both 92% +/- 7.4%. (4) One patients with a TFE3+ and MITF+ tumor and 66-87,XXY,der(1)t(1;8)del(4)(q?) der(11)t(11;15)der17t(X;17 abnormalities died 9 months after diagnosis.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
