Case report highlights CNS involvement and treatment outcomes in a patient with Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome, suggesting family implications.
Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome is a hereditary neoplastic disorder inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, characterized by the formation of multiple benign and malignant tumors and cysts in various organ systems, including the central nervous system (CNS) and visceral organs. We present a case with a significant family history of VHL, featuring CNS involvement, an ovarian cyst, and retinal capillary hemangioma. The patient underwent multidisciplinary treatment and was followed for 4 years, achieving successful vision salvage.
