Multiple cysts in kidneys: a case report.
[von hippel-lindau disease]
Von
Hippel-
Lindau
(
VHL
)
disease
,
which
is
an
autosomal
dominant
inherited
disease
,
is
characterized
by
highly
vascularized
tumors
in
different
organs
.
We
report
a
42
-
year
-old
male
who
presented
to
our
hospital
with
diarrhea
and
weight
loss
of
six
months
'
duration
.
Ultrasonography
of
the
abdomen
revealed
bilateral
polycystic
kidneys
with
multiple
cystic
and
solid
components
as
well
as
polycystic
pancreas
.
A
computerized
tomography
scan
of
the
abdomen
revealed
bilateral
multiple
simple
and
complex
renal
cysts
,
cystic
lesions
in
the
head
and
body
of
the
pancreas
and
a
non-enhancing
lesion
in
the
left
adrenal
gland
.
The
features
raised
the
possibility
of
VHL
syndrome
and
a
biopsy
of
the
kidney
revealed
atypical
cells
with
a
suspicion
of
malignancy
.
He
underwent
bilateral
nephrectomy
and
is
on
maintenance
dialysis
since
then
.
