Abstract
Two new cases of chromophobe renal cell carcinoma were diagnosed on the bas is of their morphology and their karyotype complemented by flow cytometry. In one of these cases, however, all these investigations were not sufficien t and additional histochemistry investigation had to be used to completely rule out other renal tumors such as oncocytoma, the prognosis of which is t otally different.
