    1. The patient's father, now 51 years old, was found to have an angioma of the glans penis and had had surgery for a mandibular cyst and epididymal cystadenomas at age 43 years. Hence, we suspected that the father had an attenuated form of VHL. Indeed, abdominal ultrasonography and total-body magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a 2.3-cm cyst in his right kidney. His blood pressure and levels of plasma free metanephrines, fractionated urinary metanephrines, chromogranin A were normal. The other three first-degree relatives were normal both clinically and biochemically.

      PatientID: DHPLC 1

      KindredID: 1

      Case: M, 51Y0M, Unknown Ethnicity

      DiseaseAssertion: Assumed VHL

      FamilyInfo: The patient’s daughter (DHPLC 1) had a pheochromocytoma at 11Y. At 18Y, she had a pheochromocytoma in the contralateral adrenal gland and two concurrent paragangliomas of the abdominal aorta and urinary bladder. At 25Y, she was found to have a right frontal meningioma. A family history obtained from his daughter’s other parent, one son and one other daughter (not DHPLC 1) was uninformative. The patient’s relatives (except for his daughter) were normal both clinically and biochemically.

      CaseHPOFreeText: The patient had an attenuated VHL phenotype caused by mosaicism which led to what initially appeared to be a de novo mutation in his daughter (DHPLC 3). The patient was found to have an angioma of the glans penis and had had surgery for a mandibular cyst and epididymal cystadenomas at age 43Y. Abdominal ultrasonography and total-body magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) conducted at the time of the study (51Y) revealed a 2.3-cm cyst in his right kidney. His blood pressure and levels of plasma free metanephrines, fractionated urinary metanephrines, chromogranin A were normal.

      KindredID: 1

      Case: F, 44Y0M, Ethnicity Unknown

      DiseaseAssertion: assumed VHL

      FamilyInfo: The patient has a notable family history. Her eldest brother had multiple RCCs in both kidneys, bilateral cerebellar hemangioblastomas, and pheochromocytoma in his left adrenal gland (see Patient 2). Her daughter also underwent cortex-sparing adrenalectomies for bilateral pheochromocytomas as well as hemangioblastoma resection in her left cerebellum at age of 19 years, although no testing for VHL was stated.

      CaseHPOFreeText: Patient diagnosed at age 29 with bilateral pheochromocytomas when she presented with severe hypertension and two large masses (greater than 6 cm) in her bilateral adrenal glands. At 38 years old, she underwent a resection for a mass found on her pancreas, with pathological analysis of the mass revealing a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor. At 42 years old, a follow-up CT scan revealed two heterogeneous contrast-enhanced masses, one on the right kidney and one on the left adrenal gland.
