    1. Twelve (75%) of 16 gene carriers were found to have ocular hemangioblastomas(Figure 1 and Figure 2), and 7 of these had bilateral disease (Table 1). The mean number of angiomas was 3.3. However, 1 individual had 22 angiomas, most of which were in an area of previous exudative retinal detachment (see the "Comment" section) (Table 2). Exclusion of this individual resulted in a mean number of angiomas of 2.1. Six eyes had optic disc angiomas (Figure 2). Six of the 19 eyes with ocular hemangioblastomas had visual acuity less than 20/40. Two patients had no light perception in one or both eyes. The average age at diagnosis of ocular angiomatosis was 37 years.

    1. recognized in a large family that originated in Newfoundland but has some members who live in New Brunswick and Ontario. A collaborative investigation was begun in 1982 to document the number of affected members and the extent of their disease and to improve management of the disease. The condition has been documented in 38 members of the family, 28 living and 10 dead. The most common manifestations are retinal angioma (present in 60% of the gene carriers) and pheochromocytoma (present in 53%). Of the 28 living affected members 14 had been identified before the study began. Only 3 of the 14 patients in whom the disease was subsequently diagnosed presented with symptoms; in the remaining 11 the condition was detected by routine screening. Overall the mean age at the time of diagnosis was 23 years; in the 21 affected members of the fourth generation it was 18 years.

      FamilyInfo: Her youngest sister had bilateral angiomas, liver lesions, and metastatic islet cell cancer. Her second oldest sister had two hypervascular pancreatic head tumours, a complex left renal cyst, and enlarged bilateral ovarian cysts. Another sister (the proband) had bilateral retinal angiomas, metastatic islet cell cancer, liver lesions, pancreatic endocrine tumours, and cerebellar hemangioblastoma. The oldest sister did not carry the mutation or have any abnormal presentations. The patient's mother was found to harbor the mutation and had retinal angiomas, bilateral adrenal pheochromocytoma, and pancreatic cysts. The patient's maternal grandmother was suspected to have VHL as she developed progressive blindness at age 32 and was completely blind by age 36. She died at age 68 due to an acute hemorrhage into and around a vascular tumour. The patient's maternal aunt died suddenly at age 51 due to a cerebellar hemangioblastoma. One of the aunt's children died at age 25 due to a cerebellar hemangioblastoma and another had bilateral retinal angiomas and multiple pancreatic cysts. Refer to Figure 1 for pedigree.

    1. Case reportThe female patient, aged 49, reported pains in her second and third finger of the right hand that she had had for 2 years. Initial diagnosis revealed isthmus carpalis and the patient was operated on without much success—no improvement was noticed.A year later, intensifying root pains of Root C5 and C6 on the right side were the reason for performing an MRI scan of the cervical spine. The findings from the study showed an intramedullary lesion of 1.5 cm in diameter, localized at the height of C5–C6 with accompanying syrinx stretching from C3 to C7. The patient was consulted neurosurgically several times, but refused to submit to a surgical treatment. Gradually, the pains extended to the entire forearm of the upper right limb, and numbness appeared of both lower limbs. She met the clinical diagnostic criteria for VHL disease [11]. Sequencing of the VHL gene revealed the presence of the 393C>A (N131K) missense mutation (Fig. 1) [12]. VHL disease was also diagnosed in her relatives (shown in Fig. 2).

      DiseaseAssertion: VHL

      FamilyInfo: This kindred of Jewish-Kurdish origin consisted of 3 generations of 25 members. 7 were clinically affected subjects with pheochromocytoma (5 of which had the confirmed mutation - I:1, II:2, II:4, II:7 and II:9, as the other 2, II:5 and II:10 were said to have passed due to complications of the disease - prior to any genetic testing), and 4 others were carriers, or pre-symptomatic (III:1, III:3, III:7 and III:12). Subject 11:7 developed a cerebellar hemangioblastoma 25 yr after his initial diagnosis of pheochromocytoma, leading to the clinical diagnosis of VHL in the kindred.

    3. We report the case of a 15-year-old boy with the diagnosis of aggressive GH-PRL pituitary macroadenoma and a family history of VHL disease. Pituitary resection was performed, although complete excision of the lesion could not be confirmed by the neurosurgeon. A control MRI was done 6 months after surgery and the pituitary lesion was similar to the presurgical image. A second operation allowed partial resection of the tumour followed by targeted radiotherapy.

      DiseaseAssertion: VHL

      FamilyInfo: The family history revealed VHL in his mother, who died at the age of 40, and in his maternal aunt and grandmother, deceased at 30 and 33 years, respectively. His mother was operated on three times for cerebellar hemangioblastomas, the first at 13 years of age. She had also been treated for bilateral retinal hemangioblastomas since the age of 19. In addition, she had surgery for a renal tumor at the age of 32 and also had pancreatic cysts. She died of the diffuse hemangioblastomas in the posterior fossa. Variant is stated to be previously identified in the family but it is not clear which members have been genetically tested.

      CaseHPOFreeText: Referred at the age of 15 for decreased visual acuity of the right eye. Growth failure with short stature for age and lack of pubertal development was noted. This was confirmed by ophthal-mologic examination which also showed bitemporal quadranopsia. Two retinal vascular lesions had already been diagnosed and photocoagulated. Cerebral MRI examination visualized a voluminous pituitary adenoma (confirmed pathologically) with suprasellar extension compressing the optic fibres invading both cavernous sinuses. It also confirmed two small cerebellar hemangioblastomas. On follow-up, MRI showed a persistent pituitary adenoma (confirmed by pathology) with numerous mitoses. A cystic part of the main hemangioblastoma was also noted in the right cerebellum image.

      FamilyInfo: Family’s roots were traced to the German town of Leipzig in Saxony, from whence the original 11 siblings had immigrated to America around 1670. The following report is a 2011 updated pedigree on the previously reported Tisherman kindred. At the time of this study, 43/49 patients have undergone mutational analysis revealing the VHL familial mutation (Y112H) and 35/49 patients have clinical VHL manifestations. Phenotypic cumulative lifetime risk was 71% for Pheo/PGL, 15% for hemangioblastoma, 33% for retinal angioma, 3% for renal cell carcinoma, and 3% for pancreatic cysts. 6 members of the family (all deceased; 4 males, 2 females) had suspected VHL and 2 (males) of these were suspected to have had Pheo/PGL.

    1. Ninety-eight individuals were tested for VHL mutations--23 symptomatic and 75 asymptomatic individuals belonging to 16 families. Seven of the families had definite clinical criteria of VHL disease, five had sporadic hemangioblastoma, and four had CNS hemangioblastoma combined with minor visceral signs. Molecular genetic testing identified five germline mutations in six of the definite VHL families (sensitivity 85%), but none in the possible VHL and sporadic hemangioblastoma cases; four of these mutations had been previously described and one is a novel mutation present in two unrelated families. After patients carrying the mutation were identified, they underwent clinical screening and asymptomatic VHL-related lesions were identified in 43%.

    2. Interestingly, one carrier of the deletion developed bilateral breast cancer at age 46 and 49. First cancer was diagnosed at the age of 46 in her right breast. The patient was treated by mastectomy with postoperative chemotherapy (CMF). Histopathological examination revealed invasive ductal breast carcinoma of 1.8 cm size. The tumor was ER- negative, and PR-negative (HER2 was not analyzed). A metastasis in 1 axillary lymph node was found. There was no evidence of distant metastases. The tumor was classified as T1c pN1a M0, stage IIA; grade G2. Three years later, at the age of 49, she was diagnosed with cancer of her left breast. It was an invasive ductal carcinoma of 2.0 cm size. The tumor was ER-positive, PR-positive, and HER2-negative. There was no evidence for lymph-node or distant metastases. The tumor was classified as T1c pN 0 M0, stage IA, grade G2 and treated with mastectomy and tamoxifen. Ki67 expression was not tested. At present, 9 and 6 years after treatment of the breast cancers there is no evidence of breast cancer recurrence. However at age of 54, lesions typical for VHL disease including cerebellar haemangioblastoma and renal cell carcinoma were diagnosed in the patient.

    1. One year later, a 10-year-old sister of the proband (II-2) was referred to our service because of palpitations, weight loss, diaphoresis, and shooting pain attacks that had started about two weeks earlier. Based on this clinical picture and because of her family history, a pheochromocytoma was suspected immediately. Her urinary metanephrines were elevated to 12.2 mg/g creatinine (< 1 mg/g). A CT of the abdomen revealed a mass in the left adrenal; there were no lesions in the pancreas or the kidney. This mass was also positive on MIBG scintigraphy. As in her brother, there was no suggestion that the paraganglia would also be involved. Her MRI of the brain, and her echocardiogram were both normal. She was then treated with an alpha-blocker (prazosin) in preparation for an open adrenalectomy. Histology and immunohistochemistry confirmed diagnosis of a pheochromocytoma in the left adrenal gland.

      PatientID: II-2

      KindredID: 1

      Case: F, 10Y0M, Ethnicity Unknown

      DiseaseAssertion: Adrenal pheochromoyctoma

      FamilyInfo: The patient’s brother (II-1) was found to harbor the same germline mutation the patient harbored and had bilateral adrenal pheochromocytoma at 14Y. The same germline missense mutation was detected in another sister (II-4) with right adrenal pheochromocytoma and her asymptomatic daughter (III-1). The father was not available for genetic testing because he had died, apparently secondary to a hypertensive crisis. The five other family members which underwent genetic testing did not have the mutation.

      CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0006748 (Adrenal pheochromocytoma)

      CaseHPOFreeText: At 10Y, the patient reported palpitations, weight loss, diaphoresis, and shooting pain attacks. Her urinary metanephrines were elevated to 12.2 mg/g creatinine. A CT of the abdomen revealed a mass in the left adrenal gland. Histology and immunohistochemistry confirmed diagnosis of left adrenal pheochromocytoma. Additional screening revealed no other tumours, so this fit the criteria of VHL type 2C.

      CaseNotHPOFreeText: There were no lesions in the pancreas or the kidney, there was also no suggestion that the paraganglia would also be involved. Her MRI of the brain, and her echocardiogram were both normal.

    1. Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) is a tumor suppressor that negatively regulates the production of angiogenic factors. Mutations in the VHL gene cause VHL syndrome, which is characterized by highly vascularized tumors. Here we report a c.464T>A mutation of the VHL gene in three patients with hemangioblastoma from a Chinese family. This mutation was not reported previously and was absent in the unaffected family members. The mutation is predicted to cause Val to Glu substitution at VHL protein residue 155 in a conserved region. Previous biochemical studies demonstrated that residue Val-155 was critical for VHL protein binding to chaperonin TRiC/CCT, an essential step for proper VHL protein folding. Our finding of naturally occurring VHL V155E mutation in patients with VHL syndrome supports the functional importance of Val-155 residue in VHL protein and illustrates the diversity of VHL gene defects underlying VHL syndrome.

    1. The proband (Patient III‐1) was admitted into our ward in October 2015 with a complaint of an occipital headache for 1 month. He was conscious, and a physical examination did not reveal ataxia. Tests for cranial nerve function, limb sensation and motor function were unremarkable. Contrast‐enhanced brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a solid‐cystic mass in the vermis cerebelli and left cerebellar hemisphere (Figure ​(Figure2a),2a), indicating a radiological diagnosis of CH. Cerebellar tumor resection was performed through a sub‐occipital craniotomy under general anesthesia, and the tumor was completely removed. The tumor, which was 30 mm in diameter, was pink and soft and composed of dilated veins and dense blood capillaries. A postoperative pathological analysis of the tumor indicated a hemangioblastoma. The patient completed outpatient follow‐up in October 2018. The occipital headache had disappeared, brain MRI showed no recurrence, and abdominal computerized tomography (CT) revealed no neoplasms.

      FamilyInfo: Both of the patient’s uncles (Patient II-1 and II-4) were clinically diagnosed with VHL disease, and carried the mutation NM_000551.3:c.269A>T. Patient II-1 presented with RCCC at age 33 and cerebral hemangioblastoma at age 41. Patient II-4 presented with RCCC at age 53. The patient’s deceased father (Patient II‐3) and deceased aunt (Patient II‐5) were also clinically diagnosed with VHL disease, but the mutation was undetermined before death. His father died of advanced RCCC, and his aunt (Patient II‐5) died of a ruptured CH. The patient’s grandparents (Patient I-1 and I-2) were also deceased from other causes. The patient’s son (Patient IV‐1), wife (Patient III‐2), and mother (Patient II‐2) were healthy and did not carry the mutation. Their annual physical examination did not reveal a hemangioblastoma, kidney mass or abdominal cyst.
