  2. Oct 2026
    1. Patient II‐1 was admitted to the Department of Urinary Surgery and Neurosurgery in October 2007 and again in December 2015. In the first hospitalization, a serendipitous left kidney mass was found, but no symptoms. Abdominal CT revealed a solid cystic mass on the inside of the left kidney with irregular enhancement (Figure ​(Figure2b),2b), indicating a radiological diagnosis of RCCC. A laparoscopic radical nephrectomy was performed, and pathology confirmed the diagnosis of clear cell carcinoma. In the second hospitalization, the patient was admitted with complaints of headache and dizziness for 2 months. A brain MRI showed a right CH (Figure ​(Figure2c).2c). Tumor resection was performed through a posterior approach, and pathology confirmed the diagnosis of hemangioblastoma. In the most recent follow‐up, his symptoms had disappeared, and radiological imaging revealed no recurrence in either the brain or abdomen.

      FamilyInfo: Both of the patient’s brothers (Patient II-3 and II-4), the patient’s sister (II-5), and the patient’s nephew (III-3) were clinically diagnosed with VHL disease. Patient II-4 presented with RCCC at age 53, and carried the mutation NM_000551.3:c.269A>T. Patient III-3 presented with CH and carried the same mutation. The patient’s other brother (Patient II‐3) and sister (Patient II‐5) were deceased and had an undetermined mutation. Patient II-3 died of an advanced RCCC, and Patient II‐5 died of a ruptured CH. The patient’s parents (Patient I-1 and I-2) were also deceased from other causes. The patient’s grand-nephew (Patient IV‐1) was healthy and did not carry the mutation.

    2. 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.

      CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0006880 (Cerebellar hemangioblastoma)

      CaseHPOFreeText: The 25Y male patient presented with occipital headache at 21Y. Upon initial examination, the patient was diagnosed with cerebellar hemangioblastoma and the tumour was resected. The patient completed outpatient follow‐up three years later. The occipital headache had disappeared, brain MRI showed no recurrence, and abdominal CT revealed no neoplasms.

    1. This case concerns a 35-year-old woman referred to our Gastroenterology Department with long-standing dyspepsia and pancreatic cysts detected by ultrasound examination. There were no other symptoms, such as abdominal pain, weight loss, visual or hearing changes, headache or urinary complaints. The past medical and family histories were not of significance. There were no abnormal findings on examination.The patient underwent an abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan (Figure ​(Figure1),1), which showed an enlargement of the pancreas, especially in the cephalic region, with heterogeneous density due to the presence of multiple hypodense nodules dispersed throughout the parenchyma. The majority of these lesions were small, but one larger contrast-enhancing lesion of 22 mm was present in the uncinate process.Open in a separate windowFigure 1Computed tomography abdominal scan. A: Small cystic lesions dispersed throughout the pancreas; B: The largest lesion.Given the findings of the CT scan, we performed an abdominal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (Figure ​(Figure2),2), which revealed several cysts that had a high signal intensity on T2 weighted images.Open in a separate windowFigure 2Magnetic resonance imaging. Cyst lesions are bright on T2-weighted images.The patient underwent endosonography that confirmed the presence of multiple simple cysts throughout the entirety of the pancreas. The majority of the cysts were less than 1 cm in diameter, but two cysts were larger than 1 cm. One of the larger cysts was 16 mm in diameter and was located at the isthmus-body transition. This cyst and did not communicate with the main pancreatic duct and was aspirated. The content had a serous appearance, and cytological analysis revealed amorphous material, few erythrocytes and inflammatory cells (Figure ​(Figure33).Open in a separate windowFigure 3Endosonography. A, B show a large cyst of 16 mm in diameter without communication or dilatation of the pancreatic duct; C: Demonstrates aspiration of the cyst; D: Demonstrates its appearance after total aspiration.The largest cyst was 23 mm in diameter and was located in the head of the pancreas. The cyst had a honeycomb appearance characteristic of serous cystadenomas (Figure ​(Figure4A).4A). The cytology did not show evidence of cellular atypia (Figure ​(Figure4B).4B). The carninoembryonic antigen was < 0.6 ng/dL, and the amylase in the cystic content was 135 U/L.Open in a separate windowFigure 4The largest cyst was 23 mm in diameter and was located in the head of the pancreas. A: Endosonography. Cyst with a honeycomb appearance; B: Cytology (papanicolaou stain, × 100). Benign pancreatic cysts.The endosonography also showed cysts in the left kidney and in the spleen (Figure ​(Figure5).5). The findings described were compatible with simple cysts and pancreatic serous cystadenomas and provided an indication for genetic testing for VHL. The sequencing of the VHL gene revealed one pathogenic heterozygous mutation in exon 1 (c.269A > T), confirming the diagnosis of VHL disease.Open in a separate windowFigure 5Endosonography. A: A cyst in the renal cortex; B: A cyst in the spleen.The patient underwent a MRI of the brain and entire spine and no hemangioblastomas were detected. The abdominal MRI scan excluded renal carcinoma. The plasma and urinary catecholamines and the urinary vanilmandelic acid were normal, excluding pheocromocytoma. The patient was also referred for examination of the retina and ear, nose and throat, including audiometry. There were no abnormal findings, which excluded angiomas of the retina and endolymphatic sac tumors, respectively.
