Von hippel-lindau disease: ct and mr imaging findings

Journal Title: International Journal of Recent Scientific Research - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 3

Abstract

Von Hippel Lindau disease (VHL) is a rare, autosomal dominant inherited multisystem disorder which can be diagnosed by clinical, radiologic and genetic findings (Katabathina et al, 2014). We reported the spectrum of CT and MR imaging findings of sporadic VHL and familial VHL in three patients. Recurrent headache, ataxia and abdominal pain are most common symptoms. Multiple cerebellar hemangioblastomas are present in all the patients. Pancreatic serous cystadenoma, renal cysts and spinal syrinx formation was demonstrated in 33year old sporadic VHL patient.
