Obstructive jaundice due to von Hippel-Lindau disease-associated pancreatic lesions: A case report.

[von hippel-lindau disease]

von Hippel-Lindau (VHL ) disease is an autosomal dominantly inherited neoplastic syndrome that may lead to pancreatic masses and obstructive jaundice . The present study describes the case of a 20 -year -old male who suffered from obstructive jaundice due to VHL disease-associated pancreatic lesions whose primary symptom was dizziness , followed by the appearance of jaundice . Since the excision of the renal cell carcinomas was not possible , the patient also refused surgery to resect the pancreatic head mass . A metallic stent was placed at the stenosis site of the common bile duct . Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTCD ) surgery was later performed following complete blockage of the stent , however , to date , the patient continues to rely on PTCD . VHL disease-associated pancreatic lesions are rarely the direct cause of mortality , however , obstructive jaundice due to these lesions may be lethal . Therefore , the treatment of patients with incurable renal or central nervous system tumors and obstructive jaundice presents a problem .
