Needle biopsy of the tumor can be a useful strategy to diagnose oncocytoma in the very elderly or very sick patient with a renal tumor. There have been cases reported in which patients with large bilateral and unresectable renal oncocytomas have been observed for many years without showing distinct tumoral progression. Such observational treatment may be entirely appropriate for patients at poor operative risk because of extensive comorbidities
Core needle biopsies are increasingly used in the diagnosis of renal masses (Figure 3). Because 20–45% of small renal masses are ultimately found to be benign, active surveillance is an option for many patients (38, 39). The diagnostic accuracy of renal mass biopsy remains somewhat controversial,
however. Individual groups have reported up to 80% diagnostic rate from renal mass biopsy, with the ability to provide
subtype and nuclear grade in the majority of diagnostic biopsies (40). Unfortunately, oncocytic lesions can be especially troublesome in renal mass biopsy, as interpreting only a limited sampling
of tumor may not be representative of the entire lesion. A meta-analysis of 205 oncocytic renal mass biopsies from
2017 showed that the positive predictive value for a diagnosis
of oncocytoma on renal mass biopsy was 67% with significant heterogeneity and wide confidence interval, indicating
that the diagnostic accuracy varies greatly between studies and, by extrapolation, between pathologists (41). For renal mass biopsies of oncocytic neoplasms, there is a
split among urologic pathologists as to whether it is preferable to issue an outright diagnosis of oncocytoma (when features
are typical in the biopsy sample) or to use more general
terminology, such as “oncocytic neoplasm,” with comment that the features are compatible with oncocytoma (5). In the context that morphologic and immunohistochemical features are largely compatible with oncocytoma, yet in which there
are minor equivocal features, such as variation in cell size
or slight nuclear irregularity, it is also reasonable to utilize
a borderline diagnostic category expressing uncertainty between oncocytoma and eosinophilic variant chromophobe
renal cell carcinoma. In this setting, immunohistochemical staining may also be helpful. Although CK7 staining may not
be beyond the expected level of oncocytoma, findings such as
negative vimentin staining and positive KIT staining generally
argue against other considerations, such as papillary or
clear cell renal cell carcinoma with eosinophilic cells. Since chromophobe renal cell carcinoma, especially the eosinophilic
variant, is also generally regarded as a less aggressive
tumor subtype, this can facilitate appropriate management in patients who are candidates for nonsurgical treatment (42).
Conversely, if nuclear or cytologic features are inconsistent with oncocytoma (non-degenerative atypia, nuclear membrane
irregularity, or perinuclear clearing), a diagnosis of eosinophilic
variant of chromophobe renal cell carcinoma may be favored.

Overview

Renal mass biopsy may be helpful in the diagnosis of renal oncocytoma. However, distinguishing between oncocytoma and RCC by biopsy is difficult. Since this method only reserved for patients who are at high risk for an operation like very elderly or extremely sick patients. Some complications may happen during renal mass biopsy which are perirenal hemorrhage, pneumothorax ( during biopsy of upper pole tumors) and tumor seeding.

Renal mass biopsy may be helpful in the diagnosis of renal oncocytoma. However, distinguishing between oncocytoma and RCC by biopsy is difficult. Since this method only reserved for patients who are at high risk for an operation like very elderly or extremely sick patients. [1][2]
