A case of von Hippel-Lindau disease associated with bilateral renal cell carcinoma
A case of von Hippel-Lindau disease associated with bilateral renal cell carcinoma is presented. A 27-year-old female noticed myodesopsia and underwent laser coagulation of right retinal hemangioma in 1973. In addition, cerebellar hemangioblastomas were removed in 1977, 1978, 1983 and 1987.

Zusammenfassung: | A case of von Hippel-Lindau disease associated with bilateral renal cell carcinoma is presented. A 27-year-old female noticed myodesopsia and underwent laser coagulation of right retinal hemangioma in 1973. In addition, cerebellar hemangioblastomas were removed in 1977, 1978, 1983 and 1987. The patient was referred to the department of urology for further examination of bilateral renal masses which were incidentally found on abdominal computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance-CT. Fine needle biopsy performed and microscopic examination revealed the presence of clear cell type renal cell carcinoma (grade 1). Renal arteriography demonstrated multiple neovascularity in the bilateral masses. Complete tumor excision was impossible to retain the minimum of renal function, the patient was conservatively subjected to a follow-up study |
