von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is an inheritable condition with an incidence of 1 in 36000 live births. Individuals with VHL develop benign and malignant tumors including retinal and central nervous system hemangioblastomas, clear cell renal cell carcinomas (RCC), pheochromocytomas, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors and endolymphatic sac tumors (ELSTs). VHL is caused by germline loss of functio...

Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is a hereditary cancer syndrome characterized by the development of multiple vascular tumours. The syndrome is caused by inactivation of the VHL protein (pVHL) and increased production of VEGF, PDGF, and TGF-α. The course of VHL syndrome is associated with the development of multiple vascular tumours. Most frequently, these include retinal and central nervous sys...
