Intrasellar hemangioblastoma (HBL) has been described in few patients with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome [Rho 1969;Dan and Smith, 1975;Sawin et al., 1996]. We report on a 26-year-old white man who presented with intermittent headache and dizziness and also complained of infertility. He did not ha

We report the case of a 26-year-old man with von Hippel-Lindau syndrome (VHL) and two renal cell carcinomas (RCC), one of which was studied cytogenetically. Chromosomal analysis of the RCC showed a translocation that involved chromosomes 3 and 8 with subsequent loss of the derivative chromosome 8. T
Von Hippel-Lindau disease is an autosomal dominantly inherited disorder characterised by the development of haemangioblastomas, renal carcinomas, retinal angiomata, pancreatic tumours, and phaeochromocytomas . The tumour suppressor gene responsible for VHL has been mapped to 3p25 and a partial sequ
Communicated by Victor A. McKusick von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHL) is an inherited neoplastic disorder characterized by the development of tumors in the eyes, brain, spinal cord, inner ear, adrenal gland, pancreas, kidney, and epididymis. The VHL tumor suppressor gene was identified in 1993. Initial
## Abstract Deletions of the short arm of chromosome 3 are often observed in a specific subset of aggressive neuroblastomas (NBs) with loss of distal 11q and without __MYCN__ amplification. The critical deleted region encompasses the locus of the von HippelβLindau gene (__VHL__, 3p25). Constitution
