Abstract

Abstract Tumors with clear cell morphology in histopathology are relatively common. From lipomas to clear cell sarcoma, many tumors share the common feature of clearing of the cytoplasm, which occurs due to their cytoplasmic content of fat, glycogen, or mucins, which are lost during processing in histopathology. This case series describes the various tumors with clear cell morphology at varied sites, along with a detailed review of the clear cell tumors.
