Gallbladder carcinomas (GBCs) are the most common carcinomas of the biliary tract. The clear cell variant is encountered rarely, accounting for approximately 1% of all GBCs.Due to its rarity, the exact incidence and pathogenesis of this variant are unknown. Though hyalinising cholecystitis (porcelain gallbladder) is an established risk factor for development of conventional adenocarcinomas of the gallbladder, its role in the pathogenesis of the rare variants of GBC is not well-established. The current case raises the possibility that clear cell carcinoma of the gallbladder may arise through the same pathways as conventional adenocarcinomas of the gallbladder.

Multilocular cystic renal neoplasm is a rare subtype of clear cell carcinoma with an incidence of 1-2 % of all clear cell carcinomas. Morphologically, it shows numerous cysts surrounded by fibrous capsule and septae containing clear cells. The aim of this case report is that the diagnosis is possible solely by histopathological and immunohistochemical evaluation, which aids in distinguishing it from other cystic clear cell entities, as imaging is inconclusive pre-opeartively. Urologists and radiologists should have an adequate understanding such an entity. Almost all the cases are amenable to partial nephrectomy irrespective of the size and there is no documentation regarding the recurrence and metastasis, which mandates less stringent follow up post – operatively compared to clear cell carcinoma.

A case of clear cell carcinoma of the larynx is presented. By light microscopy the lesion was composed mainly of sheets of clear cells, containing intracytoplasmic mucin and glycogen. Glandular lumina, tonofilaments, and desmosome-tonofilament complexes were observed on electron microscopy. The presence of these features established that this unusual neoplasm was a clear cell variant of mucoepidermoid carcinoma.

Abstract Here, we report surgical treatment of a patient presenting with pancreatic metastasis (MTS) of renal clear cell carcinoma (RCC) 11 years after nephrectomy. RCC is one of few cancers that metastasise in pancreas. Jaundice, abdominal pain or gastrointestinal bleeding can develop; however, asymptomatic MTS can be discovered by follow-up after removal of the primary tumour. The patient, 67-year-old female was radiologically diagnosed with a clinically silent mass in the pancreatic body and underwent distal pancreatic resection. The postoperative period was smooth. Four months after the surgery, there were no signs of disease progression.
