“…It is reported that the recurrence of CHB can promote the tumorigenesis in kidney, lung, and epididymis. 27 After discharge from the hospital, the patient should be informed of regular antenatal examination and the Down syndrome screening to evaluate surgical curative effects and detect fetal development. As in our case, postoperative follow-ups found that the mother and the fetus were both healthy without tumorigenesis or abnormal development.…”

“…Therefore, the drug use must be ensured that there are no adverse effects on the mother and the fetus. It is reported that the recurrence of CHB can promote the tumorigenesis in kidney, lung, and epididymis 27 .

“…Several cases of metastasizing renal cell carcinoma have been reported in patient with a CNS hemangioblastoma [ 16 ] and therefore differential diagnosis of multiple metastatic tumors in the lung in this group of patients should include renal cell carcinoma. As shown in this case report ( Figure 4 ), on frozen sections, the hemangioblastoma from the right lower lobe exhibits features mimicking clear cell renal cell carcinoma.…”

Hemangioblastoma primarily occurs in the CNS, most commonly in the posterior fossa. Extracranial locations are less common, and metastatic tumor involving the lung is exceedingly rare with only three cases previously reported. Two were autopsy studies in patients who died of complications of the CNS hemangioblastomas in 1943 and 1981, and the third was mentioned in a case report addendum providing follow-up information on hepatic hemangioblastoma in 1991. We report a case of a 48-year-old man who presented with multiple lung nodules treated by surgical excision. Pathological study revealed features classic for hemangioblastoma. The patient had a remote history of hemangioblastomas having been excised from the posterior fossa 7 and 20 years previously. This report details a fourth case of metastatic pulmonary hemangioblastoma. It is the first report on surgically resected hemangioblastomas from the lung of a living patient with histological and immunohistochemical characterization.

“…It is the most frequent source of the initial symptoms and the most common cause of death. Its occurrence ranges between 36 per cent 1 and 50 per cent to 60 per cent of the affected individuals 22 . An adult patient with history suggestive of posterior fossa neoplasm of more than three months duration should be suspected of having a haemangioblastoma. The family history and the retina should be screened for haemangioblastoma.…”

Presenting Secondary ever, this had been done by Collins ten years earlier", Lindau!": II in 1926 and 1930 reported for the first time that tumours of the retina and posterior fossa had the same histological appearance. He also discovered and pointed out that some patients with retinal and posterior fossa tumours had kidney, liver and pancreatic cysts, renal carcinomata and pheochromocytoma. Schuback'? in 1927 was the first to introduce the term "von Hippel-Lindau syndrome" to describe patients with retinal or posterior fossa tumours, together with cysts of carcinomas in various abdominal organs. However, it would seem that Collins has been done an injustice. SymptomatologyAlthough the disease is recognised during the third, fourth and fifth decades of life, it has also been observed in a three year old child13. In a series of 78 patients', 12 per cent of the disease was diagnosed between the ages of 12 and 20. SymptomsThe main presenting symptom is headache suggestive of raised intracranial pressure, occipital or frontal or of unspecified location. Other presenting or secondary symptoms are summarised in Table 1. Table 1. Presenting and secondary symptoms of von Hippel-Lindau syndrome.
