| Description | To distinguish Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease from a sporadic case of hemangioblastoma seems to be crucial for the management and follow up of these patients. The occurance of a renal cell carcinova is very likely in VHL patients and the mortality of it has exceeded that of hemangioblastoma due to a better surgical results. Close life-long observation is needed to recognize the carcinoma soon and also for some potential for reccurent or de novo growth of hemangioblastoma. |
