At 40Y, patient 4 was diagnosed with cerebellar and spinal hemangioblastomas. He had multiple cysts in the kidneys and pancreas, as well as kidney stones, leading to a diagnosis of VHL disease type 1. Three years later, a renal cyst and kidney stones were discovered again. The following year, hemangioblastomas of the spine were found, as well as kidney stones. A year later, a lesion in the left and right cerebellum were detected. Patient 4 also had cysts in both kidneys and pancreas, as well as more kidney stones. Genomic DNA was isolated from peripheral blood and PCR was performed to amplify the coding exons of the VHL gene. Sanger sequencing revealed a germline in-frame heterozygous p.Asn90del(c.268_270delAAC) deletion in the VHL gene. Immediate family members were recommended to genetically test for the relevant variant or monitor for VHL-related symptoms.
